Happy 75th @ArcOfIllinois! In 1950, #Disability care often meant institutions or isolation. Together, our #DisabilityAdvocacy helped shape #Medicaid & #HCBS waivers, unlocking #CommunityLiving opportunities & essential supports for Illinoisans w/ I/DD 🤝❤️‍🩹💼.

Pres & CEO Kim Zoeller calls this piece SPOT ON! "We are people trying to live, work, and thrive, but in a country that still hasn’t figured out how to make freedom accessible." - Carlos Gamez, self-advocate member of the Florida Center for Inclusive Communities at USF Advisory Committee thehill.com/opinion/health…

For the nearly 2,000 people and families we partner with, these services are a lifeline, not a line item. Please take a moment to tell Congress No #Medicaid Cuts! #ProtectMedicaid action.thearc.org/Jr1ou1i

For a 25-year-old with autism like Terrence, independence means access to day programs, therapies, & medication. For his single mom, that access depends on Medicaid. Protecting #Medicaid is about protecting a young man’s future.

For retired parents like Teri, Medicaid isn't just a line item—it's the safety net that prevents bankruptcy while caring for her adult daughter, Kacki. How can we protect Americans with disabilities and their families? Saving #Medicaid is the answer.

For Gregory’s family, getting #Medicaid support felt like “winning the lottery.” It funds his day program—his social lifeline. Now, a bill proposing a $1T cut threatens his future. #MedicaidMatters to families like Gregory's. Tell Congress to vote NO: bit.ly/3I45yIr

Emily’s parents worry about “who will care for her after we pass away?” 🇺🇸 In the USA, #Medicaid is the answer. It makes Emily's life full and gives her family peace of mind. Tell Congress to protect people with I/DD and vote NO on a $1T cut: bit.ly/3I45yIr

As an "active, intelligent, and athletic teenager," an unexpected illness changed Joe's life. Now a senior citizen with disabilities, he relies on #Medicaid for stability and comfort. Protect American seniors! Tell Congress to vote NO: bit.ly/3I45yIr
