About this episode
Meaningful Day was a Washington State program that was considered a major success since it started ten years ago. It provided outings, workshops and other enriching activities for about a thousand residents with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
But the need for severe budget cuts erased all of Meaningful Day’s funding. We look at what that means for caretakers and residents.
