Annual Willowbrook lecture to be held on April 14
The virtual event, "Avoiding the Next Willowbrook: Lessons Learned about Activism from Parents," will be held Wednesday, April 14, at 6 p.m.
This online Zoom event presents experiences of parents whose children lived at the Willowbrook State School. Included is what happened to their children at Willowbrook and how the parents became activists participating in the events that led to the closure of the institution. Parents also describe a lifetime of activism and what might be helpful today to people with disabilities, parents, students and families. Zoom info will be provided upon registration.
