Webinar, May 29th, 2025, with The Western Mass Family Leadership Program at Multicultural Community Services. Law Enforcement and the I/DD Community: Continuing to Advocate for Greater Understanding. A conversation with Russell Lehmann – author and activist for autism, mental health and disabilities.
* Back in 2022, Russell joined this program to discuss the barriers to effective outcomes between people with I/DD and law enforcement, and how families could address them.
* Russell will join us again to revisit this topic, sharing his experiences and views on what is working, and barriers that still exist. There will also be a conversation about family concerns, current Massachusetts bills addressing this issue, and the importance of advocating for positive change.
