1,784. Amy Erlew<strong>in</strong>e Santa Cruz, CA My daughter uses CCS MTP services for OT and PT. <strong>We</strong><br />

could not possibly, as a family of four, live off of $40,000 a<br />

year <strong>in</strong> our <strong>are</strong>a, yet <strong>the</strong> only <strong>the</strong>rapists capable of deal<strong>in</strong>g<br />

with her multiple disabilities work <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> MTP. If this budget<br />

passes, we would lose some of her most valuable<br />

resources. They have helped her move from a child almost<br />

completely unable <strong>to</strong> move <strong>to</strong> one that is roll<strong>in</strong>g across <strong>the</strong><br />

floor and grabb<strong>in</strong>g <strong>to</strong>ys and able <strong>to</strong> soo<strong>the</strong> herself.<br />

1,794. Elizabeth Warren Mill Valley, CA My son is severely disabled - I believe every family has <strong>the</strong><br />

right <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>se important services for <strong>the</strong>ir child. Therapy<br />

(OT, PT, equipment, AFOs, chairs, walkers, standers,<br />

wheelchairs, medications, lifts). Therapy and equipment<br />

<strong>are</strong> SO expensive for <strong>the</strong>se children, every child with<br />

medical + physical challenges has <strong>the</strong> right <strong>to</strong> have <strong>the</strong><br />

correct services and equipment <strong>the</strong>y need <strong>to</strong> achieve <strong>the</strong><br />

best quality of life.<br />

1,797. Clifford Young San Francisco, CA As a retired pediatric occupational <strong>the</strong>rapist, I have seen<br />

first hand how medical <strong>the</strong>rapy <strong>the</strong>rapy services improve<br />

<strong>the</strong> lives of children with disabilities. Limit<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>se services<br />

<strong>to</strong> families based on <strong>the</strong>ir ability <strong>to</strong> pay, ra<strong>the</strong>r than on <strong>the</strong><br />

medical <strong>the</strong>rapy needs of <strong>the</strong> child, is grossly unfair <strong>to</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong>se families who <strong>are</strong> already burdened with tremendous<br />

f<strong>in</strong>ancial constra<strong>in</strong>ts and medical issues. Please do not cut<br />

<strong>the</strong>se vital services <strong>to</strong> families with children with special<br />

needs!<br />
