1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,971
David Medeiros publicly identifies as
a brain-injury and stroke survivor.

2
00:00:05,271 --> 00:00:10,988
Connecticut General Assembly records
identify him as founder of ABI Resources.

3
00:00:11,288 --> 00:00:16,707
CARF lists ABI Resources and reports
its first accreditation in 2017.

4
00:00:17,007 --> 00:00:19,993
These sources establish distinct
facts.

5
00:00:20,293 --> 00:00:22,384
They do not turn David,

6
00:00:22,484 --> 00:00:23,529
the company,

7
00:00:23,629 --> 00:00:26,616
and the people served into one legal
person.

8
00:00:26,916 --> 00:00:31,609
A person receiving services holds
beneficiary and disability rights.

9
00:00:31,909 --> 00:00:35,045
David may hold his own
disability-access,

10
00:00:35,145 --> 00:00:36,084
speech,

11
00:00:36,184 --> 00:00:37,315
petition,

12
00:00:37,415 --> 00:00:41,041
and due-process protections when their
legal tests are met.

13
00:00:41,341 --> 00:00:45,075
ABI Resources may hold separate
organizational,

14
00:00:45,175 --> 00:00:46,199
contract,

15
00:00:46,299 --> 00:00:48,453
or procedural interests.

16
00:00:48,753 --> 00:00:51,591
No right should be borrowed from
another lane.

17
00:00:51,891 --> 00:00:54,344
Review the independent records,

18
00:00:54,444 --> 00:00:59,159
then compare them with the source
archive at david-medeiros.com.

19
00:00:59,459 --> 00:01:04,408
Use ctbraininjury.com for Connecticut
brain-injury information.

20
00:01:04,708 --> 00:01:06,479
When asking for help,

21
00:01:06,579 --> 00:01:09,267
identify whose right is affected,

22
00:01:09,367 --> 00:01:11,308
what decision occurred,

23
00:01:11,408 --> 00:01:13,541
and which document proves it.
