A Year Into Pandemic, People With Developmental Disabilities

A Year Into Pandemic, People With Developmental Disabilities Struggle To Connect


/
Chrissy Perkins and Demetrius Broyles pose at a Christmas party pre-pandemic. At one holiday party, he got the chance to pie her in the face.
Demetrius Broyles' mom helped him log into a Zoom session with a few of his coworkers from Easterseals, a nonprofit that works with people living with developmental disabilities. It provides job services and socialization opportunities. But a lot of people the organization works with are unemployed now because of the pandemic.
"I'm at home right now because of this mess and I can't do nothing right now," Broyles says. "Because I'm missing out on church, my friends at church, missing out on a lot of activities — going places like going to the Reds games."
