Every individual living with AS deserves timely access to the education, services, and protections they are entitled to under the law.
A proposed federal change would move the offices responsible for special education, vocational rehabilitation, and disability civil rights out of the U.S. Department of Education and into other government agencies. This could create unnecessary delays and confusion for families already working hard to secure the supports their loved one needs.
For families in the Angelman syndrome and broader rare disease communities, we know that every day matters. Delays in therapies, accommodations, and educational supports can have lasting impacts.
Students with disabilities belong in our schools, and the offices responsible for protecting their education and civil rights should remain where families know how to access them.

If you live in one of these 6 states, consider taking action and tell your state attorney general to stop attacking the Section 504.
