We, the undersigned, respectfully urge Governor Kathleen Sebelius and members of the Kansas Legislature to work together to provide full funding for community services utilized by Kansans with developmental disabilities. We believe that a major priority of our state must be to assure that these vital services will always be available.

Seeing this kind of momentum brings me to tears because I know exactly how much these services mean for my brother and families like ours. The tide is finally turning and it feels like people are truly starting to listen.

Watching this list grow shows me that so many others understand how vital these services are for my sister and thousands of families like ours. We are about to hit five hundred signatures so please send this link to your neighbors right now to push us over that mark.

I have been spending my nights reading through the stories you all have left in the comments about your own family members. These accounts are a powerful reminder of why we must keep pushing for the funding our community needs to survive.

My brother needs these services to live on his own. It is terrifying thinking they might cut the funding during budget talks.

The waitlist for these services is already way too long. Stop taking away support.

Quit cutting funding for people who need it most. It is just heartless.
