ABLE Act Webinar Wrap-Up

Posted by John Goodrich on Thursday, May 24, 2012

On Tuesday, May 22, D.A.D.S. and NDSS held our joint Webinar about the ABLE Act and it was a rousing success! Nearly 300 Dads participated - many with their D.A.D.S. group as a chapter activity.

Besides the scheduled speakers of Steve Beck, Sara Weir, Joe Meares and Darin Yoder, we were also treated by an introduction by Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers explaining what ABLE means to her.

Now, as discussed during the Webinar, there is Action needed to help get ABLE passed. Whether or not you attended, download the presentation (here) and follow the steps to contact your Senators and Representatives.

For those of you that missed it the first time, the full audio version will also be available soon. We'll post a link as soon as it it's ready.
