KEEP MURRAY DEVELOPMENTAL CENTER OPEN

Illinios Governor Quinn is trying to close Murray Center. Closure would deal a tragic blow to the 280 individuals with developmental disabilities it serves, their families, and the entire Centralia area. The Quinn administration is planning to force these residents to move to community placements because they are less costly than the higher level of care provided at Murray which is crucial for many of the residents. Residents with high needs will have no where to turn!

Why is this important?

Illinios Governor Quinn is trying to close Murray Center. We need to show as much support as possible for our cause to keep Murray Center open. This is our last chance to keep Murray Center open for the health, safety, and quality of life for our loved ones.
