Just now Governor Kathy Hochul announced the plan in her budget press conference to hand over the CDPA program to a giant for-profit corporation. NY wants to hand over this program rather than work with people with disabilities to make it better.

'To acknowledge harm in action and continue on is oppression'.

Oppression of disabled people is more common than you'd expect. I know of other cultural institutions that put their artistic integrity before progress.

Like Richard, I was born prematurely: 'sent before my time / Into this breathing world scarce half made up'. I also have a scoliosis. As a disabled performer and theatre scholar, I no longer feel welcome in a venue I cherished. Solidarity Disabled Artists Alliance

We're singing in support of Consumer Directed Personal Assistance. We're singing to oppose destroying a program created by and for people with disabilities. It's not the same program if you hand it over to a single corporation.
