Oppose Early Intervention Parent Fee Proposal

The NYS Legislature may consider the budget, including the proposal to charge parents fees for Early Intervention services, as early as the week of March 23rd. It is critical to spread the word and take action now!

1. Email your state legislators via the InterAgency Council's Web site. An email for parents of children in EI and an email for staff are both available at http://capwiz.com/iacny/state/main/?state=NY

2. Add your name to the New York Zero-to-Three Network's online petition at http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/Save-Early-Intervention-in-NYS

3. Forward this information to as many people as possible and urge others to take action!

4. For more information and updates on what you can do to oppose this proposal, contact Randi Levine at (212) 822-9532 or rlevine@advocatesforchildren.org
