Hi Janet:

I certainly will forward this and probably attend the town hall
myself.  This is a really interesting idea and could make the awesome
Lighthouse programs and services available to more and more
individuals.  It makes me think of the independent living apartments
that Vision Forward in Milwaukee have, or the dormitory model that the
Helen Keller National Center has.  I look forward to hearing more
about this.

Thanks,

Ray Campbell
