ATTN AAPPD Members, Families, and Advocates! This Thurs, there is a House Ad Hoc Committee discussing the DDD system growth and policy changes. We are asking folks to join us to pack to room and show our legislators how critically important the FY25 DD Supplemental Funding is. 📣

A huge thank you to Representative Matt Gress for taking time to tour AAPPD member VALLEYLIFE's campus. We appreciate his focus on our important Arizonan's with I/DD and the critical funding needs for our system!

Enjoyed the tour of @valleylifeaz’s day center. So much happening here, including art class!
There’s an @ArizonaDES study underway to evaluate what the State pays to providers serving individuals with developmental disabilities.
I look forward to seeing that report this fall.
