Thank you @GovernorShapiro and @ValArkooshPA for hearing individuals' and families' stories yesterday. Your proposal of $483 million to increase DSP wages will be vital to ensuring that ID/A services are there for the people and families who depend on them.

@PARdotnet makes it easy to share your support for @GovernorShapiro's budget proposal, which includes investments to the ID/A system to help increase wages for DSPs and eliminating the emergency waiting list. You can send an email every 24 hours! ow.ly/bK3l50QTthI
Want to meet with your legislators to advocate for ID/A funding, but not sure what to say? PAR is excited to announce that our 2024/25 budget advocacy materials are now available! Visit par.net/advocacy-toolk… to view and download one-pagers, talking points, and others materials
Watch @GovernorShapiro's budget address live today at 12:30 at governor.pa.gov/live We are hopeful that our collective efforts will result in positive news for the Pennsylvania ID/A system. Thank you to everyone who advocated!
DSPs are an essential piece of something important - the ID/A service system. But DSP wages don't reflect the significance of their responsibilities & their profound impact on those they support. Send a letter to @GovernorShapiro to advocate for DSP wages- par.net/action-center
