Message from Bob and Nancy: Your Commitment, Real People, Real Voices, Real Choices!
To: ADAPT members and supporters
From: Nancy Salandra & Bob Liston
Subject: ADAPT "Free Our People March," September 4-17, 2003
Join ADAPT for its historic march from the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, PA to our nation's Capitol in Washington, D.C. where the march will culminate
in a rally for MiCASSA and a day of visits with Congress. Make history. Show your pride and determination to pass MiCASSA and Free Our People!
The entire march from Philly to DC will take 14 days of arduous effort and will take the place of the fall action in 2003. This is a huge commitment
so show your strength, but show it wisely. If you are concerned about the amount of time involved or stamina / health issues you will have an
opportunity to join the march September 13th at Baltimore for the final leg to D.C.
Finally, you can join up in Washington, D.C. on September 17th for the rally and Hill visits.
BUT!, whichever you choose MUST BE A FIRM COMMITMENT so we can plan accordingly. Logistics for this event will be extremely detailed and
complicated while funding will be very tight. Choose carefully and wisely taking into account the time involved, money involved and your
disability/health/stamina issues as well as need for personal attendant and so on. We will not be able to handle people jumping in and out of the
march whenever and wherever. "Emergency" assistance will be limited to regular
police and ambulance 911 services.
Please come. Be tough. Be proud. Show your fire and commitment. But be realistic.
Following is a sign up sheet with four options for participation. Make a firm choice and send it back to:
