Hands Across SF & CA This Sunday

Dear Advocates and Self Advocates, INFORMATION FLYER ATTACHED! Services for Disabled Students Programs and Services at our California City Colleges have been cut back 41% in the last couple of years. Now the legislature is considering further cuts to the community college and the possibility for increasing tuition fees to $66 per unit from the current $26, according to Paul Johnson, Dept. Chair, DSPS, City College of San Francisco. You are being invited to literally join Hands Across California and San Francisco this Sunday, April 17, 1:30-2:30 PM with Community College supporters across California. They hope to form a human chain across the state! I will be at Van Ness and Market in front of the Bank of America with some of the signs made by our clients at 1:30 PM. I hope that some of you can join me, and please try to get friends, family members and self-advocates to join hands and hold our signs until 2:30 PM. We want to keep having our clients attend classes at City College and continue having their college instructors at The Arc! If you have any trouble opening the attached flyer, there will be flyers at our front desk on Howard Street. Hope you can participate! Thanks, Tim Timothy Hornbecker, CEO
