Dear Governor Rauner:
We are writing to call your attention to the unfolding crisis in the delivery of services and supports to children and adults with developmental disabilities in the community. Simply put, there are not enough staff available to support people in their homes safely. We are asking you to convene your administrative and Department of Human Services’ staff to meet with us next week to identify a solution to the crisis.
