LC” decision, which confirmed the Americans with Disabilities Act’s provision that people with mental health disabilities have the right to live in the least restrictive environment, that is, in our communities.  However, this year, ILNC has a special guest speaker: International Disability Rights leader Judith Heumann will address the people with disabilities in Niagara County (via video conferencing) at 6:00 PM on June 25, 2020.
