This is a friend of mine's petition, but I run into the same issues every day.  So, please sign if you see fit.

Community-Based Therapy

Hey!  Creed here with a post about a petition I'm doing on MoveOn.org.  The petition deals with community-based therapies and how Medicaid does not currently allow therapists to go out in the community with their clients unless they're below the age of 3.  This affects me directly because I am running out of goals in the therapy center.  Outside of the therapy center is where I could work on goals more effectively, especially speech.

Not only would this petition help me, but it would help many others.  Just about every day I run into people and I can tell that they're nervous talking to me.  This petition would also help that problem because it would allow people to interact with people with disabilities more.

Feel free to add comments on moveon.org, specifically because that helps when I deliver the petition to the Medicaid Services Board.
