Are there any adult disabled children living with their elder parents in US? There should be separate support services for both parents and the adult children. Does anyone know where we can find such cases in US? TIA.

Hello Annette, Try contancting http://www.lookingglass.org/. We know of many such families here in the US. http://www.disabilityrightsca.org/ is another resource for you to contact.
Can anyone suggest a good advocate for people with physical challenges? I know, there are many in the Lake County area for those with mental challenges but I need one who knows laws regarding those with physical challenges.

Disability Rights California has a hotline: http://www.disabilityrightsca.org/ I believe they cover developmental (intellectual), mental health and physical disabilities. Free service. If they can't handle it, they'll know who to refer you to.
