Welcome to a special Monday edition of the "Don't IEP Alone" podcast with your host, Lisa Lightner. On this episode, Lisa dives into pressing issues in the advocacy world, starting with an urgent flash sale on her Don't IEP Alone Academy, designed to make advocacy training more accessible amid increasing demand for advocates. Lisa then turns her attention to a critical development regarding the Administration for Community Living (ACL). Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s recent announcement to dismantle this crucial agency, which prevents unnecessary institutionalization and supports both disabled individuals and senior citizens, has stirred concern. Lisa emphasizes the ripple effects this change could have, especially on disabled rights and services, and urges listeners to take action by contacting lawmakers. Listen in to learn how you can advocate for continued support and services for our communities. The time to unite and protect essential rights is now. Don't miss out on this impactful episode.
