Vision for Equality CFST

Too often we underestimate the
power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallenst act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Embreeville Settlement Agreement

The Embreeville Settlement Agreement is a federal court agreement that mandated the closing of Embreeville, a major state center. This landmark decision called for teams of people with disabilities and family members to monitor services for the people who were able to make the transition from the state center to the community.		a letter from the CFST Coordinator
Today our teams continue to meet with and visit these class members along with their community match to meet their needs and to insure a level of quality of services.

	Our emphasis is on establishing relationships with people over time and listening to their choices.
	The Embreeville Class Members and their allies, through the teams, have given service providers valuable information and a clearer understanding of what they want and need from the service system and to check the suitability of services.
