My brothers have been in a workshop environment for the last several years now, and it's done wonders for them. They and any others with disabilities should have the right to continue working here if they and their caretakers so desire, and to take away this option is not only harmful, but outright ignorant of the needs of so many in our community.

With all the money we throw away on undeserving projects, surely we can afford to help these people.

Individuals with I/DD deserve the opportunities provided by these facilities. Please don't let them fall through the cracks of a thoughtless bureaucracy.

People with IDD have great skills and these workforce programs are wonderful. These programs benefit hands on skills and social skills to help those with IDD work with others.

Those with IDD must be defended for obvious reasons. I believe that the greatness (strength) of a nation should be gauged by the way in which its citizens view, support, and defend the young, the old, and those with mental and physical disabilities.

I have worked with individuals in this type of setting in the past. These workshops are a vital part of these individuals development and a necessary part of their social and workforce development skills. Closing them would be detrimental to so many.

This is a violation of rights that has the potential to negatively impact quality of life for many individuals. These programs need to remain open in order to provide gainful employment, learning and social opportunities.

As someone who works with individuals with IDD, I have seen first-hand the advantages that a pre-vocational workshop can provide for an adult that needs extensive support in a work environment.

These services offer an opportunity for quality of life for individuals that can then be productive members of their community, who otherwise may not be.
