The DDAWNY Family Committee invites families and advocates to join us for our next Virtual Family Meeting on Wednesday, June 18 from 7:00 – 8:30 PM. This month’s session will focus on an important and timely topic:
Featured Topic:
Understanding the Role of the Justice Center
How it protects people receiving services through OPWDD
We’re pleased to welcome two expert panelists from the Justice Center’s Individual and Family Support Unit:
- Dee Levy, MSW, MPA, Director
- Collin Read, MPA, Assistant Director
This meeting will provide valuable insights into how the Justice Center responds to concerns about care, investigates allegations of abuse or neglect, and offers resources to support individuals and families navigating the service system. You’ll learn how to make a report, what happens next, and how the Center can be a partner in ensuring safety and dignity for your loved ones.
