We continue to work with City Council, State Representatives and Senators, ODP,
IDS, Disability Rights Network and other Advocates to learn more
about vaccine distribution. PPSG is working on a list that they
can provide families various links and sites that are offering vaccine at this time.
We have spoken with DRN and City representatives about access
issues for people with disabilities. We are seeking solutions for people
who are homebound or unable to go out to receive the vaccine
because of transportation issues, fear of crowds, standing in line,
not wearing masks, etc. It seems like in the next few months the
vaccine will be readily available to many and we will continue to
build our lists of available sites to share with self-advocates and families.
