A team of people we support, family members, board members, and staff from The Arc Baltimore joined advocates from across the state to promote policies and funding for our community. Developmental Disabilities Day in Annapolis drew hundreds to begin the day with a program and briefing.

Our district teams went to 28 meetings to advocate for our agenda. Our representatives and their staff were receptive and responsive to our concerns. We appreciate their time and attention to our issues, including Senate President Bill Ferguson who personally welcomed constituents from his district, including self-advocate Tavon Hadley, who attends every year.
