What are developmental disabilities?
According to the CDC, developmental disabilities are conditions that affect physical, learning, language, or behavior areas. They begin during childhood and usually last throughout a person’s lifetime.
Examples include:
✅ Autism spectrum disorder
✅ ADHD
✅ Cerebral palsy

✅ Intellectual disabilities
✅ Learning disabilities

Each person with a developmental disability has unique strengths, challenges, and needs.
