Learning about the Benefits of Microboards: Danny’s Story
A Microboard is a group of committed family and friends (at least five) who join together with a person who has a disability to create a supportive not-for-profit corporation. People and families that choose to invite others together to form a Microboard fundamentally believe that building strong and abiding relationships is central to a person’s security and well-being. In this webinar, Danny and his family shared what starting a Microboard has meant to them.
