Join the DC Development Disabilities Council for a community information session about building a better system of supports for people with developmental disabilities (DD) in DC. Currently, adults with DD, like Autism for example, who are assessed as having an IQ score above 69 are not likely to be found eligible for long-term home and community-based services through the DC Department on Disability Services – even when they need support services to work and live independently. The DC Development Disabilities Council thinks that should change.

If you or a family member has been impacted by DC’s restrictive eligibility requirements – or you or your child are planning for the transition to adult services – come learn about what you can do to advocate for change and to create a better system.
