March is Developmental Disabilities Month

By respecting and appreciating the diversity within our LRCD communities, we can empower everyone to live their best life and promote equity and justice for all of our residents. We hope you enjoy these resources and events that help you learn about and celebrate the beauty in our differences, while acknowledging our shared humanity.

Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month – NACDD
 
Each year, the National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities (NACDD) and its partners work together to create a social media campaign that highlights the many ways in which people with and without disabilities come together to form strong, diverse communities.

​
​The campaign seeks to raise awareness about the inclusion of people with developmental disabilities in all facets of community life, as well as awareness of the barriers that people with disabilities still sometimes face in connecting to the communities in which they live.
