Governor Phil Bryant recently signed a Proclamation declaring the Month of March as Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month.
Boswell Regional Center is observing the month of March as such in several ways. One of those ways is joining forces with the City of Magee to increase awareness in the community through a proclamation signed by Mayor Jimmy Clyde on March 18th. This is an annual event intended to raise IDD Awareness in Simpson and surrounding Counties.
“The City of Magee has shown much support to Boswell Regional Center and the persons we support who live in this area. Through a person centered process and great community partners, people’s dreams are truly becoming a reality,” said Steven Allen, Director of Boswell Regional Center.
Also, IDD Day at the Capitol is set aside for March 24th. Facilities and organizations that serve persons with disabilities erect displays in the rotunda of the Capitol in Jackson and speak with legislators regarding programs and services provided to Mississippians with disabilities. Boswell will be one of the organizations highlighted during this event.
