- Easter Seals Family Support Conference Calls
SABE is a partner in a new grant in collaboration with Easter Seals, the DD Councils, the National Disability Rights Network, the University Centers and The Arc. The grant is about family support. We will be letting the professionals know how we want to be supported. It is a chance to get the message out how self-advocates and families can work together. Each month there will be a free conference call for families and self-advocates on the third Wednesday of the month at 3:00 PM Eastern time. Watch for these conference calls on the Events page!
- Self-Determination Project
SABE is partnering with the National Training Initiative on Self-Determination, which is funded by the Administration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD). Leadership of the National Training initiative is comprised of representatives from five University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDD), also funded by ADD: Missouri, Kansas, New York, Oregon and Illinois. The goal of the National Training Initiative is to work with self-advocates, families, professionals and policymakers to enhance self-determination in the lives of people with disabilities in the United States.
