Voice for Change: Upholding Support for Anthesis
About this episode
Join us on this week's episode of Walk and Roll Live as we dive into a crucial discussion with Shawn Prokopec, CEO, and David Mix, Development Director of Anthesis. We unpack the recent decision by the state of California to put a crucial rate increase for organizations like Anthesis on hold for 12 months. Anthesis is at the forefront of providing essential programs and services for intellectually and developmentally disabled adults, empowering them to lead fulfilling lives. Our guests shed light on the impact this delay in funding will have on the delivery of these vital services and how it affects the individuals they support. But it's not just a discussion; it's a call to action. We rally our listeners and the constituents of Anthesis to make their voices heard with the legislature, urging them to keep the timeline for the rate increase intact. Every dollar donated and every voice raised is a step towards ensuring our community flourishes and individuals with disabilities receive the support they deserve. Tune in to learn more about Anthesis's transformative work, the importance of advocacy, and how you can be part of this crucial movement for change. Let's uphold support for Anthesis and uphold the rights of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live independently and with dignity. Anthesis.us walkandrolllive.com
