3 Reasons to Rally at Push Day

Registration is officially live for Push Day! And this year, the stakes are high. With Kansas facing a projected deficit of at least $600 million, we are at risk of funding cuts for critical services for people with disabilities. By participating in Push Day you can have a direct impact on people’s lives! 

Here are three benefits of participating in the April 30th Rally:   

1. Join fellow advocates from around the state in a day of celebration at the Kansas State Capitol

2. Remind legislators, through your presence, that the challenges facing the Kansas I/DD system should be priorities throughout the remainder of the 2015 legislative session. 

3. Urge lawmakers to preserve funding for I/DD services as they wrestle with the state's fiscal challenges. 

The family advocacy group Advocates for Invisible Kansans will be on hand to deliver their personal stories and reasons for advocating. Let’s band together and be a strong, unified voice for families of Kansans with intellectual and developmental disabilities!

The event is free to the public and Organizations can register as many people as they need to for one low fee! Click Here to Register for Push Day. The official 2015 Push Day T-shirt is also available for pre-order!
