From DREDF - Healthcare Stories
DREDF is pleased to announce the release of newHEALTHCARE STORIES that illustrate, as no policy paper can, the obstacles and barriers that stand in the way of getting appropriate, effective health care for many people with developmental disabilities.
These short video stories feature people with developmental disabilities and their families, and an intrepid primary healthcare provider who has defined the field of developmental medicine.

Such persistent barriers to health care affect not only our health and wellbeing, but also the quality and length of our lives.
