This is a campaign is a targeted effort by individuals with developmental disabilities and their families in collaboration with the Developmental Disabilities Coalition.* Through public education and grassroots advocacy our goal is to convince the Governor to reduce, and eventually eliminate, the Developmental Disabilities Waiting List for thousands of people with disabilities in Maryland, who need supports and services in the community. To do this, Maryland must make this a top funding priority and commit to funding a multi-year Waiting List initiative. This must begin this year.

"Don't forget to look at me when you say hello, Taylor," Miss Wingfeather said.Because Taylor has autism, looking at faces makes him dizzy. He sees lights and shadows dancing about on faces. Taylor waved to Miss Wingfeather, but he needed to keep his eyes away from her.
