Policy update slides from Erin are attached, not much movement but a couple big things happening.
Also from Erin is the letter sent to the Appropriations Committee and NACDD’s written testimony to HHS.

The Nominations Committee is still seeking qualified candidates for the Board of Directors, please see the attached documents to get some idea of the positions they’re looking for and nominate any deserving individuals.
And for your final reminder this week, the 2022 Champion of Equal Opportunity nominations are still open! If you know a Self Advocate who’s a true champion, here’s an avenue for well-deserved recognition.
Best of luck with the upcoming Friday the 13th. At least it’s better than the Monday the 13th we get next month, right Garfield fans?
