[Headline] Atlantis Needs Help The eight handicapped persons living in Denver's Atlantis Community are proud people. They are seeking to sustain themselves to the best of their ability; that's why they are living in the experimental community now called Atlantis. But already, just as their attempt toward some degree of personal independence begins, they find themselves stymied by slow-moving bureaucracy. The eight had moved into a group of apartments at Las Casitas Housing Project in West Denver to establish a degree of self-determination above that offered in the nursing home where they formerly lived. They took up residence June 1. But despite early preparations to make sure their Social Security checks would arrive without interruption, several of the checks have been delayed and the continued operation of the program tor the next few weeks is in question. The burden will be increased by the move of six more handicapped persons July 1 into the Atlantis Community. If their checks, too, are delayed, the program will be in even more serious trouble. Now—through no fault of their own-the residents of Atlantis find themselves asking for temporary help. Persons wishing to help may become a founder member of Atlantis by donating $10 or more to Atlantis Community, 619 S. Broadway, Denver 80223 or 1232 Federal Blvd., Denver. In return, donors will receive Atlantis’ annual newsletter detailing the community's activities and will know that they have helped a worthwhile cause. Volunteers also may aid residents in shopping for groceries, washing clothes and other activities. Persons wishing to help may call 297-3056 or 893-8040. When the crisis is over, the Atlantis residents hope to return to their dream: self-sufficiency.
