Good afternoon, Listserv members. We have several pieces of information to share with you this afternoon. Enjoy your summer!
(1) National Priority Survey Conducted by the Administration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD)
ADD is fielding a short 5-question survey now through the end of August. It should take less than 10 minutes to answer the questions. ADD wants to use the ideas they collect from individuals with disabilities, their families, and the network of service providers and of the public in general to shape the direction of new services. Take this opportunity to make your voice heard! Click here to read more and to complete the survey.
(2) NCLD Youth Web Site
The National Consortium on Leadership and Disability for Youth recently announced that their interactive, youth-friendly site is up and running. Visit http://www.ncld-youth.info for news, announcements, funding opportunities, disability history quizzes, and more!
