- ADAPT (983)
[This page continues the article from Image 985. Full text available under 985 for easier reading.] - ADAPT (982)
A large crowd of ADAPT activists and friends are gathered in a park for a rally. In the background you cand see the Atlanta skyline. They are facing a large banner with the ADAPT Free Our People logo and, partially visable, the words "Our Homes Not Nursing Homes, Free Our People" printed beside the logo. In front of the banner is Justin Dart Jr. in his trademark grey cowboy hat and Alan Holdsworth (aka Johnny Crescendo), and in front of them, Bob Kafka with a big white beard. In the crowd you can see Danny Saenz, Joe Pitti, Diane Coleman, Alfredo Juarez among many others. Everyone has an American flag. Also in the crowd is Linda Stinson Worley, in her sip-and-puff-wheelchair, holding a huge packard that advertizes her candidacy for State Representative of the 28th District. - ADAPT (1021)

This is the story, as told in a video Incitement, of ADAPT's national action in Atlanta in 1996. We were fighting for community based services so people don't have to go into nursing homes and other institutions. We were able to get Speaker Newt Gingrich to agree to sponsor our bill, and to get both parties very aware of our issue on the eve of the national election. We challenged the GA Nursing Home Assn and the AHCA (the nursing home lobby group) and pulled off some spectacular actions.
