This October, celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month by joining us for an interactive and engaging session designed to help you feel more confident when dealing with the topic of disability. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and learn directly from a panel of individuals with disabilities in a safe and welcoming space for open, informative conversation.
The North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities (NCCDD/the Council) staff and members will present the Council’s 2027-3031 Five-Year State Plan. The Five-Year State Plan sets the Council’s priorities and guides how funding is invested to improve services, supports, and opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) across North Carolina. The Council’s state plan was developed with extensive public input from North Carolinians concerned with IDD to help ensure that the plan reflects the needs and lived experiences of the I/DD community. The plan went into effect on October 1, 2026. Join us and learn about future Council investments and how North Carolinians concerned with I/DD contributed to how the Council will invest its funds for the next five years.
