Rep. Pat Gallagher visited one of our KenCrest Group Homes last Friday. Rep. Gallagher received a tour and discussed the DSP workforce crisis, specific staffing challenges in this location, and the overall budget ask of keeping intact Governor Shapiro’s proposed Executive Budget for I/DD services. The Representative agreed to sign off on a letter of support to House leadership outlining the Governor’s recommendations for I/DD services investment: addressing the emergency wait list for services; DSP reimbursement; and rates. Thank you for the visit, and we can't wait to have you again!
