children regardless of family <strong>in</strong>come, all of which<br />

contributes <strong>to</strong> improv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>ir quality of life. These services<br />

function as contribut<strong>in</strong>g members of our society <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Palo Al<strong>to</strong>, CA Hav<strong>in</strong>g tried <strong>to</strong> look for long term occupational and physical<br />

<strong>the</strong>rapies for my daughter I can attest that <strong>the</strong>re <strong>are</strong> very<br />

few resources available <strong>to</strong> disabled children outside of<br />

CCS and those <strong>are</strong> r<strong>are</strong>ly covered by health <strong>in</strong>surance for<br />

<strong>the</strong> time needed. These children <strong>are</strong> given skills,<br />

opportunities and strengths that help make <strong>the</strong>m<br />

contribut<strong>in</strong>g members <strong>to</strong> society as adults. <strong>We</strong> should be<br />

putt<strong>in</strong>g more money <strong>in</strong><strong>to</strong> support<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>m not tak<strong>in</strong>g money<br />

966. Ajmal Noorani Mill Valley, CA My son has muscular dystrophy and CCS services <strong>are</strong><br />

crucial <strong>to</strong> him.<br />

967. Susan Kaufman Hesperia, CA<br />

968. Millicent Skiles Mill Valley, CA My friend's daughter was born with physical disabilities. I<br />

know how much it has meant <strong>to</strong> everyone <strong>in</strong> that family <strong>to</strong><br />

have <strong>the</strong> program available. It's not like <strong>the</strong>y asked or<br />

planned <strong>to</strong> be <strong>in</strong> this situation. If <strong>the</strong>y were without this<br />

program, I th<strong>in</strong>k it's highly unlikely <strong>the</strong>y would be able <strong>to</strong><br />

make ends meet. <strong>We</strong> as <strong>the</strong> proverbial "village" have a<br />

duty <strong>to</strong> protect all of our young and <strong>to</strong> give <strong>the</strong>m <strong>the</strong> best<br />

chance <strong>in</strong> life.<br />

and appropriate medical equipment (wheelchair, etc.) that<br />

he needs <strong>to</strong> live his life with <strong>the</strong> dignity and <strong>in</strong>dependence<br />

of a typical 5 year old. His <strong>the</strong>rapists <strong>are</strong> <strong>in</strong>valuable and he<br />

needs <strong>the</strong> services.<br />
