Center for Disability Rights (CDR) & Regional Center for Independent Living (RCIL) will hold the 2024 annual membership meeting via mail.

We are catching up – The 2024 meeting is closely following the 2023 meeting so we can realign the annual meeting with the calendar year.

In late August, members will receive the annual meeting notice, membership renewal forms, and a ballot to return their votes.

Reminder – All Pooled Trust members are voting members of CDR.

We are excited that two of our board directors, who also serve as elected officers, have agreed to run for an additional term. This provides continuity for the board and has the added value of their collective historical knowledge.

CDR & RCIL are membership-based organizations. Members have a strong interest and voice in the future of the organizations, and not only in tangible benefits. Members have specific rights to participate in elections for Directors and Officers. The future direction of the organization is dependent on the board directors, who are elected by members.

Not a member? Join today! Make your vote count in the 2024 election for directors and officers for CDR & RCIL. Fill out the membership form below and send your payment to Cathleen Febles, CDR, 497 State St, Rochester, NY 14608. You will be mailed the annual meeting notice and documents needed to vote. (NOTE: The process is time sensitive. Per the Bylaws, votes must be received by September 24, 2024 to be counted in this election.)

CDR & RCIL have reciprocal membership benefits. If you are a member of either organization, you are a member of both!

Members, keep an eye on your mailbox for the annual meeting notice. Results will be posted on the CDR website, under the NEWS tab in late September.

Remember, YOUR VOTE COUNTS! Questions or concerns? Contact Cathleen Feles at CFebles@cdrnys.org or at 585-546-7510.
