Health Dialogues: Caring for the Developmentally Disabled

Caring for the Developmentally Disabled
Join us as we discuss why the state wants to close a residential care facility for the developmentally disabled, and what this closure might mean for the community. We'll also take a look at other services that help families take care of their developmentally disabled members.
