A rally is set to take place tomorrow in Vancouver.  

It's being held with the hope that more funding will be put into Community Living BC.  

Kimberley Yanko is with the group "CLBC Stop the Cuts".  

She says CLBC changed the criteria for qualifying for services, leaving many people with disabilities on their own.

"One of them being my son, Daniel. He does qualify for CLBC but he gets minimal services. He gets one hour of services a week and that's it."

Yanko says she'd like to see the new government, elected next month, inject more funding into CLBC.  

She'd also like to see a disabled act established in this province.  

The rally is taking place at noon at Robson Square.
