Legislator Wink Thanks Retiring Don Dreyer For His Commitment to Physically Challenged

Nassau County Legislator Wayne Wink (D-Roslyn) thanked Don Dreyer, the executive director of the Nassau County Office for the Physically Challenged who is retiring, at a recent session of the legislature presenting him with a county citation. Dreyer has committed 32 years of his life to advocating for people with disabilities and their families. Although he has suffered from brittle bone disease since birth and remains in a wheelchair, Dreyer affected policy changes in healthcare, government and business that will safeguard the rights of physically challenged individuals for generations to come.

“Don Dreyer is a remarkable person who has accomplished a great deal to benefit the physically challenged,” Legislator Wink said. “I admire his tremendous dedication, wish him much happiness in his retirement, and would like to thank him for the work that he’s done over the years which has benefited so many people.”
