Here is a
comment from one of our customers regarding funding a Buddy
Bike or other therapeutic equipment in Texas: "There is a
division of MHMR in every county. MHMRA is Mental Health
Mental Retardation of [COUNTY]. It's a good organization and
the go to for all answers about what's available in the
state or community for this population. But you can see why
the company just uses initials for the name."
