  4. Supports and Services
  5. Family Support Services
  6. Quality
These fact sheets will be permanently posted to the DDRA blog info bars on the right-hand side of the blog. We'll be adding more fact sheets next week. As always, please don't hesitate to comment or email us if you have any questions.

Community Forum - Weather Update

The Community Forum on the draft bill, co-hosted with Project ACTION!, is still scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday January 10, 2009 from 10 AM to 12 Noon at the Kennedy Institute, 801 Buchanan Street, NE.

As of 9 AM today (Friday, January 9th), it appears that the "wintry mix" being predicted for tomorrow will largely happen to the north and west of the city, and that the impact on DC will be minimal.

If this changes and the Community Forum has to be canceled, we will post a notice on this blog by 8 AM tomorrow (Saturday). People can also call either 202-448-1458 or 202-636-2963 and check the voice mail greeting -- we will change our greetings to reflect any cancellation by 8 AM.
