One of only a handful of people in the world living into adulthood with a rare genetic condition linked to severe developmental disabilities, he spends his days at home in Kentucky surrounded by family, caregivers, and a community that knows him. But a recent U.S. Department of Justice opinion has left his mother, attorney Marie Allison, fearing that the hard-won right of people with significant disabilities to live in their communities could be slipping away.
