North Dakota Developmental
Disabilities Network (NDDDN)
The NDDDN is a unique partnership serving individuals with developmental disabilities throughout North Dakota. The network consists of three collaborative entities serving individuals with developmental disabilities. The network includes: The Protection and Advocacy Project, North Dakota Center for Persons with Disabilities and the North Dakota State Council on Developmental Disabilities. Together, they form a trio striving to assure that individuals with developmental disabilities and their families participate in the design of and have access to culturally competent community services, individualized supports, and other forms of assistance that promote self-determination, independence, productivity, integration and inclusion in all facets of community life. Collaborative projects the network is currently working on include: Mythbusters, a public perception project and Disaster Preparedness, a project which focuses on disaster preparedness planning for persons with DD, their families and state-wide service providers.
