Manasota ARC is currently facing cuts that will have detrimental and dangerous impacts on individuals with developmental disabilities if they remain in effect. Individuals continue to be at risk for losing services, their jobs and their homes.
Manasota ARC will continue to make the best decisions that have minimal effects on individuals with a developmental disability but if these ill-conceived decisions in Tallahassee continue Manasota ARC will be forced to reduce services and potentially give notice for the closure of some services. Please contact your elected officials and tell them to support the House position to fund APD’s current fiscal year deficit and stop these devastating cuts immediately.
For 10 years Manasota ARC has offered critical services to adults and children with developmental disabilities which have significantly improved quality of life, and promoted independence and self-reliance. It is our hope that our legislators will continue to remember that these vulnerable citizens need their support and we hope these catastrophic funding cuts will be re-evaluated and funds restored.
From your family at Manasota ARC: We appreciate the work you have already done to advocate for the meaningful services we provide on a daily basis and we remain committed to our mission to provide the best opportunities for people living with a developmental disability.
