Request for a Forum/meeting involving the ultimate consumer of EVV
 

No threatening training meetings; a real forum where folks with disabilities subjected to EVV directly can speak out!  We are very intelligent and can make important decisions.  We need to be involved in how government decisions affect us personally.  We were never given a forum to give our observations or be involved in the whole process introducing EVV.  Stakeholders are supposed to be involved and there were no meetings involving us: the ultimate consumers!  The so called agencies that represent us such as ARC, Disability Resource Center, Endependence Center, etc... are not the ultimate consumer and have yet to speak up in our best interest concerning EVV.  They do not have to use EVV.  The have no idea what it is like nor do they care.  Give us a forum and a real chance to speak out against EVV.  Call a meeting.  Show you care for our input and care about us as human beings!
