I'd like to post information about this film to your listserv. "The Collector of Bedford Street", an Academy Award nominated film about a Jewish man with mental retardation, and the community that gathers to support him.
Rud Turnbull, the Co-director of Beach Center on Disability at the University of Kansas said "...an absolute 'must buy/must how/must discuss' in colleges and universities...a powerful teaching tool...I plan to use it for the rest of my career and in all of my courses." Doreen Crosser of the American Association on Mental Retardation had this to say: "In less than 40 minutes you have achieved more than the countless professional speeches I have ever given on inclusive communities..." I am wondering if this film would be of interest for your library, colleagues, etc. as it is popularly used in trainings. You can find out further information at our website, www.welcomechange.org or purchase at www.newday.com. There is also the following bulk pricing available, listed below, as you have a large amount of schools in your network, that I thought this could be useful for you: 2 copies 10% 3-4 copies 15% 5-10 copies 25% 11-20 copies 35% 21-149 copies 45% 150 and over 50% discount Thank you for your time and please let me know if I can assist you in any way.
