Taxes well spent on sheltered workshops. This is meaningful employment for many individuals who would find it difficult to compete in the regular workforce

Please do not cut these programs as they are a much needed service.

Please do not cut these work centers. They provide meaningful work and benefit the communities where they are. They also provide the workers a way to make a contribution...important to everyone.

The people who advocate for the closing of workshops have a misguided idea of what is right for our people. There should remain choices for our people to fit their needs including workshops.

these workshops play a very important role in the self esteem and independence of the workers.

Work programs are important as they give many individuals the opportunity to work and they take pride in their accomplishments. b

Having more than 16 yeras in the field I know that keeping the sheltered workshops is a positve thing. There are many individuals who coulsd not make it in the competitive world but do extremely well in the workshop. They take pride in their accomplishments and there are those that value the income no matter what the amount.
