Washtenaw Association for Community Advocacy Presents:

Everything You Wanted to Know About…..Learning Series

ACA staff will present a series of workshops for families who have a child or adult member with a developmental disability.  We are very excited to present these information sessions to our membership and the public who have an interest in supporting people to have full and self-determined lives.  We are planning on a series of monthly workshops September through June with the exception of December.  The workshops are scheduled for the second Mondays from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm at the Mallet's Creek Library, 3090 E. Eisenhower Parkway (east of Stone School Road), Ann Arbor, MI 48104. For more information, and to register, please contact ACA at 734-662-1256, or go to the ACA website.  There will no fee for these workshops. We are offering these workshops in collaboration with the Ann Arbor Public Library. We hope you will join us for some or all of these evenings. Professionals are welcome too!
