need.<br />

6,219. Susan Silva Ontario, CA maybe <strong>the</strong> people ask<strong>in</strong>g for <strong>the</strong>se cuts should take a few<br />

less luxury vacations and give <strong>the</strong>se children <strong>the</strong> help <strong>the</strong>y<br />

need for a condition <strong>the</strong>y didn't ask for<br />

6,220. mary lee Palo Al<strong>to</strong>, CA $40K comb<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong>come is <strong>to</strong>o high a threshold <strong>to</strong><br />

determ<strong>in</strong>e eligibility. For those families who meet this<br />

criteria, <strong>the</strong>re may be o<strong>the</strong>r assistance available. However,<br />

for <strong>the</strong> families that <strong>are</strong> stuck <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> "middle-class" who do<br />

not qualify for assistance but can b<strong>are</strong>ly afford <strong>to</strong> live <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Bay Area, pay<strong>in</strong>g for Special Needs services out-of-pocket<br />

would quickly push <strong>the</strong>m <strong>in</strong><strong>to</strong> <strong>in</strong>surmountable debt. Please<br />

use a needs-based criteria for prioritiz<strong>in</strong>g services. Thank<br />

you.<br />

6,231. Marcia Taack Bann<strong>in</strong>g, CA Anyone with a conscious m<strong>in</strong>d would never approve cuts<br />

<strong>to</strong> families struggl<strong>in</strong>g with <strong>the</strong> enormous responsibility of<br />

car<strong>in</strong>g for children with special needs. They need <strong>the</strong>ir OT<br />

and PT <strong>the</strong>rapy. Unless you have lived with a neurological<br />

disability you don't understand <strong>the</strong> struggle it is just <strong>to</strong><br />

make it through a day and function <strong>in</strong> a society that doesn't<br />

understand <strong>the</strong> challenges. Please do not cut services <strong>to</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong>se children and <strong>the</strong>ir families. Help <strong>the</strong>m <strong>to</strong> thrive. It's<br />

just <strong>the</strong> right th<strong>in</strong>g <strong>to</strong> do. Thank you.<br />

6,233. Marsha Collier Bay Po<strong>in</strong>t, CA My grandson had bra<strong>in</strong> trauma at birth. Without MTP, his<br />

p<strong>are</strong>nt would not have been able <strong>to</strong> afford <strong>the</strong> services not<br />

would he functionally advanced <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> degree he has. It's a<br />

crime <strong>to</strong> enterta<strong>in</strong> make this program <strong>in</strong>come driven and<br />

elim<strong>in</strong>ate children <strong>the</strong> opportunity for <strong>the</strong> service.<br />
