The National Disability Rights Network outlined its funding and policy priorities for Congress’ fourth COVID-19 relief bill which asks for a $30 million overall increase for the nationwide network of P&A agencies. To ensure the cross-disability nature of the work of the P&A agencies, the proposal requests $10 million each for the Protection and Advocacy for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities program (PADD), the Protection and Advocacy for Individuals with Mental Illness (PAIMI) program and the Protection and Advocacy for Individual Rights program (PAIR).
