On March 24, disability advocates from around the country will meet with members of Congress as part of the Disability Policy Seminar Hill Day.

You can participate by sharing your story from home. Your message will be delivered on Hill Day, reaching your representatives when it matters most.

Medicaid, public education, and Developmental Disabilities (DD) Act programs shape the everyday lives of people with disabilities. But legislators won’t fully understand the impact of these programs unless they hear directly from the people who rely on them.

That’s where you come in.

Your story can help your members of Congress understand:

Why these programs matter to you or someone you love

What’s working and what still needs to improve

What could happen in your life or community if you lose any of these critical services

Take Action By March 24!
