Earlier today, the dedicated men and women who work at the Lee Specialty Clinic came together to show their support for the patients, families, and community they serve every day. Wearing their SaveLeeClinic.org shirts and holding signs of hope, they sent a clear message: Lee Specialty Clinic matters, and its future is worth fighting for. Together, we stand united to protect this vital resource for generations to come.

Steve Tembeleski’s son Alex gets medical, dental and psychological care at Louisville’s Lee Specialty Clinic, a state-owned facility that provides comprehensive care to adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities. Alex, a 31-year-old who was born with a genetic intellectual disability, is one of roughly a thousand Kentuckians who will likely lose their care team as the clinic must cut roughly two-thirds of its budget starting next month.
