Hello Everyone,

The Kansas Council on Developmental Disabilities (KCDD) is excited to invite you to a special Advocacy Day at the Kansas Capitol! This event is dedicated to advocacy, fostering connections, and raising awareness about issues that impact people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD).

During the day, there will be a KCDD Advocate Huddle and opportunities for you to meet directly with your legislators to discuss the matters that are most important to YOU! We’ll take care of scheduling your meetings with your legislators—just be sure to register by January 31, 2025.

Event Details
Date: Wednesday, February 12, 2025
Time: 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Doors open at 10:45 AM)
Location: Kansas State Capitol (Exact huddle location to be shared soon)

This day is incredibly meaningful to me as a self-advocate with a disability, and I’m passionate about advancing disability rights. Let’s work together to make our voices heard!

Sincerely,
Lola Kernell,
KCDD Advocacy Coordinator
