The Arc of the Bay and "Bay Be Counted"
Listen now
Description
Ron Sharpe from The Arc of the Bay joins us to share about how The Arc is providing supports and opportunities for people with disabilities in our community.  Their new campaign "Bay Be Counted" is spreading awareness about the importance of registering children for disability services before they turn 14 years old, due to the ever growing waitlist for adults requiring services.  Listen as Ron shares about how transition planning for these students can make all the difference in their physical and mental well-being as they progress into adulthood.
