The Arc’s Center for Future Planning is collaborating with Boston University and Self-Advocates Becoming Empowered (SABE) to work on a project focused on people with I/DD who also identify as having a mental health challenge.

 

The Arc is gathering information from individuals who identify as having a mental health challenge and I/DD through a short survey as well has hosting virtual “town halls,” which participants can dial-in to attend using a phone. Any person with I/DD between the ages of 18-30 is invited to complete the survey and register to attend one of the virtual “town halls” and share their experiences.

 

All survey and town hall participants will entered into a raffle for $25 gift cards. If a participant completes a survey and also participants in a town hall they will be entered to the raffle twice!
