Made up of three federally-funded
"sister" agencies - the Arkansas
Governor's Developmental Disabilities
Council, Partners for Inclusive
Communities and the Disability Rights
Center - the DD Network is a relatively
new addition to the state's developmental
disabilities landscape. A natural
extension of the desire to improve the
lives of individuals with disabilities and
their families, the Network has joined
forces on several "cooperative" ventures,
including:
The annual DD Conference, and
A new Family Services Resource
Guide.
The Network is also bringing its
combined expertise to bear on such
pressing issues as improved nutrition
and physical fitness, crime prevention,
community inclusion, improved
educational opportunities and creating
a more positive perception of people
with disabilities. For more information
