I know it’s not Monday, and I know it’s not morning, but this is an update! Sometimes, one out of three’s not bad.
With the melding of developmental disability services into KanCare just around the corner, time is of the essence.

If you have questions or concerns about this transition, I urge you to attend if at all possible.
