One Last Opportunity to Ask that the State's Budget Include Funding for School Districts that Secure Employment for Students with Disabilities

If you support the idea that youth with disabilities should have more opportunities to be employed and schools should have the resources to help children do that, contact the Joint Finance Budget Committee Members beforeTuesdayabout supporting Rep. Rob Brooks' Better Bottom Line Initiative budget motion. This budget motion provides incentives to schools to make sure youth are ready for work or college after they graduate.

What You Can Say to JFC Members:

When Education funding is up for votes nextTuesday, May 19please vote for the Rep. Rob Brooks budget motion that provides a small incentive payment ($1,000) to school districts that prove they helped secure employment or post-secondary school enrollment for students with disabilities.
Deadline for Showing Support:Tuesday, May 19.
