Come to The Human Services Task Force Meeting

All residents and human service organizations are invited to participate in the first phase of our Human Services Task Force program.

In the past year, I have advocated on behalf of special needs kids at Park District Meetings, the City Council and the School Board.  In all cases, my pain was deeply felt by those in charge but I did not make an impact and services were cut.  

I am not giving up.

This Tuesday I am attending the first meeting of the Human Services Task Force.

Although my gut says, don't take the time off work...that I'd be better off trying to feed my child by putting in the hours at the office than attending another heart felt meeting, I will be there and I hope you will too.

Here is the information:
