Before self-direction, our son was in the ICU four times a year, costing $75K–$100K per stay. Since becoming self-directed, that’s dropped to once every 12–18 months. Crisis is more expensive, so why are we cutting what works? More here: buff.ly/tsBldPy

A quote graphic from ISC President Rebecca Kaduru with the ISC logo. It reads "Across the country, communities were doing precisely what the EPA now says is its top priority: ensuring clean air, land, and water for every American. That's Pillar 1 of the agency's own 'Great American Comeback.' These projects delivered on that promise. Now we need that promise restored."
Over 800 communities planned, partnered, and prepared. But now, those contracts have been canceled.
We were ready then. We are ready now. #RestoreTheFunding.
