Save Sheltered Workshops for the Developmentally Disabled

Why is this important?

I worked in a sheltered workshop for over 8 years. I had the opportunity to assist individuals with developmental disabilities with social skills and personal hygiene, while they felt the sense of self-worth by performing work tasks and received supplemental income. The federal government wants to close sheltered workshops, where will these individuals go?
