42nd Annual Legislative Reception

Please join The Arc of Massachusetts and the Massachusetts Developmental Disabilities Council at the Massachusetts State House on March 4 for our 42nd Annual Legislative Reception. Our theme this year is Breaking through Bias: Advancing Opportunities, Raising Expectations. We will be honoring Representative Aaron Michlewitz and Senator Patrick O’Connor.
Join us as we kick off National Developmental Disabilities Month! This is an opportunity for persons with disabilities, family members, advocates, state agency heads and their staff, and legislators to meet and catch up on legislative priorities and other important issues.
Registration opens at 10:00AM. The program will run from 10:30AM to 11:30AM, followed by visits to your legislators. Please note that this is an earlier start time than years past. Allow for adequate travel time.
Please set up an appointment ahead of time to meet with your legislators, and encourage them to attend the Legislative Reception. To identify your legislators and for a link to their contact information, click here.
Online registration will stay open until March 2, 2020.
