From The Arc of the United States
A new documentary, Raising Renee, which chronicles one woman's experience caring for her sister with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) will premiere on HBO this Wednesday, February 22 at 8 p.m. EST.

The film follows Beverly McIver and her older sister, Renee, over a six-year period after their mother's death showing how they adapt to their new reality and confront the opportunity for Renee to live independently for the first time at age 50.

In recent years, the cable channel aired Monica and David, a documentary about the marriage of two young adults with Down syndrome and produced a biopic of autism self-advocate Temple Grandin.
