OUR PRIORITIES
Expanding
KanCare
SACK believes that healthcare for all is a basic human right. We support the full expansion of Medicaid and won’t stop till everyone is covered!
Preventing Sexual Violence
& Abuse
Too many people with disabilities are put in harm’s way because they don’t know their rights, lack sexual education, and live in social isolation. SACK is taking a stand against the victimization of people with disabilities.
Voter Access
& Registration
People with disabilities have the potential of making up the largest voting block in our country. Our voice is powerful and we’re here to let self-advocates know!
Supported
Decision-Making
SACK believes that people with disabilities have the right and the power to make their own life decisions. SACK firmly believes in supported decision-making, and is working hard to train people with disabilities, providers, and policymakers just exactly what that means.
Integrated, Competitive
Employment
SACK believes that at the end of the day, all people should earn a decent living. People with disabilities face higher levels of unemployment and underemployment. It’s a fact. SACK is calling for the end of sub-minimum wages and equal opportunities to punch the clock!
Increased Wages for Direct Support Professionals
SACK knows that people with disabilities across Kansas rely on a quality workforce to help them get through their day and participate in their community. That’s why SACK is calling for increased wages for the hard-working DSPs that help us accomplish our goals and dreams!
