• Richard S. Edley, PhD, President/CEO, RCPA;
• Fady Sahhar, MBA, PhD, Director, Physical Disabilities & Aging Division, RCPA;
• Melva Fair, CEO, Community Living and Support Services;
• Annie Smith, Director of Early Intervention, Strawberry Fields;
• Representative Doyle Heffley (R-Carbon);
• Representative Joseph Hohenstein (D-Philadelphia);

If you haven’t done so yet, you can register for our Capitol Day press conference by contacting Christine Tartaglione. Please let us know if additional staff or colleagues within your organization are planning to attend Capitol Day with you.

RCPA requests that members schedule appointments with their Senate and House legislators directly to discuss the state budget, legislation, and regulations after our press conference. If you have scheduled meetings, please contact Jack Phillips with details, as we can provide some level of coordination. RCPA will provide policy specific materials at the rally, including the RCPA 2025 Legislative Priorities.

As an additional resource, members can visit the Pennsylvania Capitol website to locate parking and view maps of the building. If you have questions regarding our 2025 Capitol Day, please contact Jack Phillips.
