Statement from Maryland Association of Community Services (MACS) and The Arc Maryland. We thank them for their leadership in these advocacy efforts! Addresses the situation that today Governor Wes Moore's State of the State address did not acknowledge the biggest challenge facing our community— this devastating $457 million cut to DD supports. This situation is particularly dire given recent national developments that impact disabilities, nonprofit, and human rights service provision.
