Kristine is very proud of her newly crocheted animal! She has worked hard with staff, learning a new technique. She learned quickly and is producing lots of fun animals!
The Colorado Developmental Disabilities Council is inviting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) to share their voices in a new statewide Community Survey.
If someone with IDD needs support completing the survey, family members or caregivers are welcome to assist. However, the survey is designed to reflect the thoughts and experiences of individuals with IDD themselves.
The survey is short, anonymous, and written in plain language. It is a chance to speak up about what truly matters when it comes to living a meaningful life with choice, freedom, purpose, and inclusion.
✔️ Live in Colorado
✔️ Are a person with IDD (or support someone who is)
✔️ Want to make a difference
Take a few minutes to help guide Colorado’s next five-year plan for services and advocacy.
Please share with your networks. Every voice makes a difference.
