WELCOME

Toward this potential, DD EXCHANGE is for conversation, civil sounding off, sharing of stories, experience, information, resources, and inspiration, giving and receiving support, and creative problem solving.

FAMILIES & GUARDIANS DEFEND RHCS WITH PASSION AND FACT

Accusing families of bashing the station, Susannah Frame and  King-5 TV in WA  finally have  kept their promise to post letters from dissenters refuting  the station's  RHC-bashing series: The Last of the Institutions.  They have posted a long list of commenters, each with a separate link to their letter(s) + the ability for readers to comment. In addition to those posted on this blog, there are several others.   Anyone wanting some real perspective and accurate information on residential habilitation centers  for people with IDD would be well advised to read all the letters. Also to bookmark the page for later reference.  They may come in especially handy with legislators.

Also, Susannah says  she is willing to post more letters if additional people wish to write to her. sframe @king5.com . You will have to close the space before "@".  If you would like your letter to be included in those collected on this blog, please email it to me at:  ddexchange @gmail.com.  (close the space before "@".
