Submit your public comment to @FSSAIndiana regarding proposed changes to multiple Medicaid Waivers (CIH, H&W, FSW, & TBI) by Aug. 8 to 📩[email protected] Learn more at in.gov/fssa/ddrs/bds-…
The proposed federal budget cuts to the PAIMI program would cut IDR's funding from $644,339 to $230,610 and drastically reduce IDR's ability to investigate abuse, neglect, and exploitation. sideeffectspublicmedia.org/public-health/…
IDR's work promotes disability rights in ways that also promote the economy and the disability community's standard of living. Employment improves people's quality of life and purchasing power, while bolstering the bottom line of employers and state and federal governments.
🏘️26 years after the Olmstead decision, IDR continues to help people with disabilities have access to home and community-based services (HCBS). Watch this from @DisabilityRtsFL to learn more! youtube.com/watch?v=jAl8fZ…
On World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, let's protect each other from abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Talk with trusted family, friends and professionals. Plan for the future. Get needed supports. Stay connected with each other. Report instances of abuse and neglect. #WEAAD
Did you know? You can comment on IDR's 2025-2027 Priorities and Objectives anytime. Read them at in.gov/idr/priorities… and share your thoughts by email, phone or mail. Instructions are on the webpage.
Hoosiers with mobility disabilities face frustration, rather than access, at historic sites. “Improving access benefits the entire community...For most people, an accessibility need is not a matter of if it will be needed, but when.”-IDR's Sam Adams 👀 tinyurl.com/mrrnkwrr
IDR is part of the P&A Network created by Congress to provide a lifeline for individuals with disabilities, ensuring their rights are respected and their voices are heard. We provide critical support to ensure equal access for all. #DisabilityAdvocacy youtube.com/watch?v=l2tbZf…
Mental Health Awareness Month is a great time to advocate for your own mental health and empower others to do the same. Reach out to a friend or loved one and remind them that you see them 👀, hear them 👂, and support them 💕. #MentalHealthAwareness #BecauseAdvocacy
