The Pennsylvania Developmental Disabilities Council (PADDC) is a planning and funding group made up of people with disabilities, and their family members, advocates, and state department representatives who work to create favorable conditions for Pennsylvanians with developmental disabilities and their families.
PADDC wants to know what matters most to Pennsylvanians with developmental disabilities and their families. They need your input on how to make life better for people with disabilities. The information you share will guide their future work.
They would love to hear your ideas on how to:
- Improve supports and services for people with disabilities and their families.
- Make communities better for everyone.
- Improve advocacy and training opportunities.
- Protect the rights of people with disabilities.
