Systems Advocacy deals with systems issues affecting people with disabilities, and getting them involved in community issues. Ann Roscoe, Systems Advocate, helped organize this year’s Disability Day at the Capitol with the State Council on Disability, Direct Support Professionals of Minnesota, and the Centers for Independent Living in both Rochester and St. Cloud, March 17. (See picture of participants outside Governors office writing comments.)
She also works with the Minnesota Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities to help prepare the disability agenda for legislative sessions. In addition, Ann is working on systems issues including aging and disability, getting people with disabilities out to vote, housing, and grassroots efforts.
