The stream, which can be watched live via Zoom or viewed later on YouTube, will feature speakers on the current issues that most interest the disability community, families, and service providers.<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">We will hear from disability leaders, public officials, and most importantly\u2014you, our community, and listeners. The show will educate the public about the capacities of people with disabilities through the message of I AM:&nbsp;I AM independent. I AM safe. I AM prepared. I AM in charge.&nbsp;Topics may include food resources, transportation&nbsp;concerns, and how the rules of re-opening the economy affect the community.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">Independence Amplified Maryland is your opportunity to know what\u2019s going on in the world of disability and take control of your future.<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">Please register below for the call information and the opportunity to let us know if you have accessibility accommodations!<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<table style=\"width: 62.1429%;
