President Barack Obama’s administration wants to address the
topic of physically/mentally challenged matters in spring 2012. They plan to travel cross country to discuss
these topics. These conferences are regional
and will take place in nine cities.
Some of the cities scheduled to take place in these
conferences include: Boston, Minneapolis, and Denver. They will start the middle of March. Some might also occur in the summer.
“I think it’s about showing what they’ve accomplished and
letting folks at the regional level know where they can go for resources,” said
Chris Thomson, vice president of corporate affairs and general counsel at United
Cerebral Palsy. “It’s a little unclear, but I definitely
think it’s an opportunity for people to express their concerns.”
In a conference call, White House representatives outlined a
starting agenda. Details on who will
host the conferences and events taking place weren’t given to activists. White House representatives had no remarks on
the conferences.
