Your Voice is Needed!!!

From the Arc of Pa: The Intellectual Disabilities and Autism ID/A system is in crisis. Nearly 60,000 Pennsylvanians with ID/A are at risk of losing or experiencing a reduction of essential services because there are not enough Direct Support Professionals DSPs to care for them. The investment of $430 million in the 2023-2024 state budget will receive tremendous strain being placed on individuals and families who can’t get the services they need and will enable ID/A providers to offer competitive wages to retain and attract DSPs.

We need you to share your story with local legislators! The Arc of Indiana County is here to make the connection and will go with you or set up a virtual link. If we want the state to invest in our families, then it is important that they know what your life looks like when you cannot get the support needed. Contact Michelle Jordan to be involved.

We are asking our members to reach out to your representative and request $430 million in additional funds.   Simply fill out your personal information on this page and a letter will be sent to the Senator/Representative that represents your part of the state.

The Arc of Cumberland & Perry Counties just released a powerful video addressing the lack of funding for direct support professionals.  Please watch No Fault of Their Own
