The legislature has officially approved full funding for community services for Kansans with developmental disabilities. We achieved our objective and the budget reflects our requirement for these vital resources. I will monitor the implementation phase to ensure these funds reach the programs as intended.

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.

The volume of support has now reached a level that allows us to formally request a meeting with the Governor’s office. I am currently drafting the briefing materials to ensure our position is presented clearly during these upcoming discussions.
