As we mark DPC’s 30th anniversary, this year’s briefing will bring together community members, bill sponsors, and legislators for an afternoon focused on the disability issues our community cares about most.

You’ll hear from people sharing what DPC has meant to them, along with updates on priority bills like wheelchair repair reform, affordable housing, and hearing aid coverage, and how you can help move them forward.
This is also a key opportunity to meet directly with your legislator. Now is the time to call or email your state senator or representative to schedule a meeting that day. Let them know you’ll be attending an advocacy day with DPC following the briefing. Legislators’ calendars fill quickly, so early outreach matters. If you need support scheduling/attending a meeting with your legislator please email advocacy@dpcma.org and we will get back to you!

The best times to request meetings are after 3pm, or before 1:00pm if you plan to arrive early. A member of DPC’s advocacy team can join you for your meeting. Just connect with a DPC community organizer and we’ll help coordinate.

Whether you’re new to advocacy or have been part of this work for years, we hope you’ll join us.
