This story is so important to learn about!! It was difficult to hear and see some of what those poor people went through, but if we forget what happened there’s a danger we’ll allow it to happen again. Thank you.

Such great work and care have went into telling the history of Mainers who live with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. The self-advocate stories are very inspiring.
