You are invited to the premiere of UNMET: North Carolina’s Two Developmental Disability Crises

This film will take place on Thursday, March 9th at 7 PM at the UNCSA School of Filmmaking.

What does it mean for a young man with autism to age out of high school without support because he is on North Carolina’s 16,000-person waiting list for services?

What does it mean to have aging parents and no support for basic life needs due to the workforce shortage of Direct Support Professionals?

UNMET: North Carolina’s Two Developmental Disability Crises is a 25-minute movie commissioned by the North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities. It shows the real-life situations of individuals with developmental disabilities and what it looks like when their needs are unmet.

Join us at the ACE Theatre Complex in Winston-Salem, NC, on March 9th at 7 PM for a viewing, a panel discussion, and a call to action for what we can do together to bring attention and solutions to these dual crises in the I/DD community.
