"What would he think if we took away his home away from him, and his family away from him?" 

That's the question posed by residents of the Jacksonville Developmental Center to Governor Pat Quinn Saturday.

Quinn plans to close seven places statewide to save money. 

When the Jacksonville Developmental Center's doors close 250 people will lose their jobs.

Parents like Janet Anderson say the JDC has helped make her daughter a productive part of society.

"She's employed in the community and is productive through close supervision of staff," says Anderson.
