[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a DC resident and taxpayer, I hope that this prime property is not given over to a non-tax paying, specialty entity that serves a whopping 50 people a year.   One, it is worth noting, has a super well-oiled marketing and lobbying arm when compared to other groups representing persons with special needs/disabilities.

Thanks for the heads up.  I will contact my council member and urge her to oppose this and instead offer the space to either a tax generating entity or a nonprofit that serves significantly more individuals who need help.   Lower income lung cancer patients, for example.  [/quote]

Read much?

It will also be a teacher training facility to disperse knowledge to DCPS faculty.
By extension, it will serve MORE THAN a whopping 50 autistic kids a year.    
(And yes, despite that well-oiled marketing machine, there still appears to be more and more kids out there who are autistic--imagine that)

My other thoughts about you?  
I will simply keep them to myself.[/quote]
