Here are some other legislative events that would provide opportunities to inform the politicians about how early intervention has helped your family:
- United Way Day on the Hill is February 21 from 9:00 to 1:00
- Utah Nonprofits Association Day on the Hill is February 14 from 9:00 to 1:00. More information at utahnonprofits.org.
- Legislative Coalition for People with Disabilities Reception with Legislators is on February 7 from 4:00 to 5:45 pm in the State Capitol Rotunda. If you wish to attend, please RSVP by contacting Trisha Rouse at the Utah Statewide Independant Living Council by Friday, February 1st at 801 463-1592 or by email at trouse@usilc.org. Please invite your Legislators to attend. To locate the names and contact information for your State Senator and House of Representatives Member, go to le.utah.gov/GIS/findDistric.jsp and enter your address.
You can also contact your Representative or Senator to let them know how you feel about providing funding for the Baby Watch Early Intervention Program, if you can't make it to any of the events. We will be sending family stories and other information to them as well.
We appreciate your support and any help you can give to ensure the state early intervention program is in the budget so we can keep providing the services your children need.
