The Office of Protection and Advocacy for Persons with Disabilities
(P&A) is an independent state agency that promotes, protects and
defends the civil and human rights of people with disabilities.

Every year, P&A develops priorities in response to the needs of people
with disabilities. These priorities determine the issues that receive
special attention during the year.  We determine these priorities
partly in response to what people tell us at our annual forums.  A
sign language interpreter will be present at all forums.

Contact P&A at least 3 business days before the event at (860)
297-4311, if other accommodations (material in large print, assistive
listening systems, etc.) are needed.

 Please refrain from wearing scented products to the forums

For more information call P&A 1-800-842-7303

"The terms abuse and abuser contribute to the social and professional
stigma attached to substance use disorders and may inhibit
help-seeking. To refer to addicted individuals as alcohol, drug, or
substance abusers misstates the nature of their condition and may
contribute to their social rejection, sequestration, and punishment."
