Justin, our support group coordinator's grandson with
Lt. Governor Kaine during filming of a commercial to launch a
state-wide campaign promoting programs for people with disabilities.
Justin appeared in the commercial with other people with disabilities
including Miss Wheelchair Virginia, Christina Draper of Fieldale, VA.
Since 1990, the unmet service
needs of individuals with physical and sensory disabilities have been
addressed by the Disability Commission, a legislative commission
chaired by the Lieutenant Governor and staffed by the Virginia Board
for People with Disabilities. The Commission provides a vehicle for
advancing budget proposals and addressing policy issues within a vision
for a service system that is coordinated, community-based and
consumer-driven.

coordinator to The Virginia Board for People with
