WHY IS THIS EVENT SO IMPORTANT?
Organizations across the state who genuinely care about Californians with developmental disabilities, their families and the dedicated workforce are VERY concerned about the current threats to federal funding for programs like Medicaid (Medi-Cal), Social Security benefits, and other vital supports and services that make it possible for people with disabilities to thrive in our communities. The time is NOW for the disability community to join forces, get loud, be seen, be heard and demonstrate the power of our collective voice. We encourage disability rights advocates and allies to attend the May 22 “Keep the Promise” rally to make sure our elected officials understand the importance of protecting disability services in federal and state budgets.
FULL AGENDA AND GUEST PRESENTERS TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON!
Special event from our friends at the California Disability Leadership Alliance and Disability Rights California
Next Monday, June 16, 2025

Bring your spirit! Bring your voice!
Tierra is joining the California Disability Leadership Alliance for a new gathering and a new day in disability rights, the First Annual CDLA Day! Event will include live performances by disabled artists, speakers from across California’s disability movement communities, information booths, and more.
Where: State Capitol West Steps, 1315 10th Street Sacramento, CA 95814

“It is a time to give thanks!! I am grateful to know all of our parents, caregivers, and siblings, and to be a part of your lives. I understand how busy you all are due to the holidays, but our forum will be open for anyone who wants to drop in and chat, or perhaps I can answer some questions you have.
Please note, there will be no forum in December. We will reconvene in the new year on January 27th, with a presentation from Serentas Special Needs Planning. More details to come!
Please consider your future planning goals for next year and how Tierra can help you accomplish them.”
