TALK 40: Advocating Never Ends; Debbie Miller author of "Raising Ricky"


Listen Later

Debbie Miller is the author of "Raising Ricky," a memoir she wrote describing her journey advocating for her brother Ricky who not only has Down Syndrome but was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Ricky was born in the 60's, in which Debbie gives us insight on how people with special needs were treated in the past and although support and aid for those with special needs has increased since then, we still have so much advocating to keep doing.
