In the midst of the Road to Freedom Tour across Tennessee several legislators were recognized for their work in the General Assembly on behalf of people with disabilities.  In Nashville that honor went to Senator Douglas Henry who was joined at a press conference by new Nashville Mayor Karl Dean.

The Coalition extends its appreciation to both for taking the time to participate in this great event.
