Care Design NY Team Members & Advocates Rally in Hauppauge for the Future of People with I/DD

On Friday, March 7, advocates, individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (I/DD), and their families gathered at the New York State Office Building in Hauppauge for a powerful call to action in support of the I/DD community.

The rally brought together voices from across Long Island and beyond to advocate for increased investment in the future of people with I/DD and those who dedicate their lives to supporting them. The event featured remarks from New York State Legislative Committee Members on People with Disabilities — Senator Monica Martinez and Assemblywoman Jodi Giglio — who spoke passionately about the urgent need for sustained funding, meaningful support, and lasting recognition for this vital community.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, stood together, and raised their voices. Your advocacy plays a critical role in shaping a better, more inclusive future for all.
