Ricky Luke and his husband David were referred to ACIL through Veterans Services. They were connected with Dawn Padick when they were in need of assistance getting handicap parking where they live. Navigating a system to break down a barrier challenge is never easy. Having an advocate like Dawn gave them the support they needed to make sure they secured their handicap parking.
Since then, Ricky and Dawn have worked together on numerus goals Ricky can rely on Dawn for advice, a listening ear, or even help composing a letter. Most recently, Dawn helped Ricky get his vaccine appointment made. "Dawn is the best!" Ricky exclaimed, "throughout the years ACIL has been a wonderful safety net."
