Legislators tour Frances Haddon Morgan Center

Rep. Tami Green (28th Dist.) and Sen. Phil Rockefeller (23rd Dist.) toured Frances Haddon Morgan Center with parents and workers.

Federation Executive Board Member Julianne Moore (Yakima Valley School) and Federation Executive Director Greg Devereux led several legislators on a tour of Frances Haddon Morgan Center in Bremerton March 11.

The center has been targeted for closure, but advocates argue that the autistic residents wouldn’t be well served by a move to other facilities and that the Morgan Center is actually the most cost-effective care available. Closure would end up costing the state more.
