    Community Forum & Legislative Dinner

    Community Forum & Legislative Dinner

    Time & Date: Friday – 5/31/2019 @ 6pm
    Place: Adria Hotel, 221-17 Northern Blvd., Bayside, NY 11361
     
    The year 2020 will be the 30th anniversary of the American Disability Act, the national law that
    ensures equal rights and opportunities for people with disabilities. However, the existing gap
    between inclusion policies and practices is still significant in New York State.
    On May 31, Sibling Net of CIDA, in collaboration with the Self-Advocacy Association of New
    York (SANYS), invites stakeholders to address seven key areas (see below) that are critical to
    the inclusion of people with disabilities within the community. During the event, the gaps
    between the policy, practice and legislative efforts in these key areas will be discussed by seven
    different groups of stakeholders and representatives from the local legislators’ offices.
     
    This is an invitation only event, and we are expecting 100 stakeholders who are families,
    advocates, representatives, government agencies, service providers and educators. If you are
    interested in joining the panel discussions on the above topics, please contact Dr. Young Seh
    Bae at youngsehbae@cidainfo.com by May 14th .
