Tony Records, the court monitor appointed to oversee implementation of the Ligas Consent Decree will speak at a Town Hall Meeting hosted by the Community Living Initiative.  He will speak on Tuesday, May 15, at the WIFi Building, 8180 N. McCormick Blvd, Skokie, IL.  Last month, Tony spoke at the state ARC convention.  His presentation can be downloaded here.  The  Ligas Consent Decree affects thousands of Ligas class members in the State of Illinois.

The Community Living Initiative for people with disabilities was announced last fall at another Town Hall meeting sponsored by  Jewish Federation, Jewish Child & Family Services and Keshet.  In addition to launching a pilot project, they hope to develop a model for other communities to adopt and replicate.   They will give an update at the meeting.  The previous meeting,  Creating Options, was reported in TheNemoNews.com.
