Application

The council adds new members to the council on an annual basis.  The council looks for membership in the following categories:

  • Individuals with developmental disabilities
  • Parents, guardians, or family members of children or adults with developmental disabilities from throughout the state; and
  • Providers of services/administrators of programs for people with developmental disabilities.

Council membership requires a commitment of 20-30 hours per month for meeting preparation and council attendance.  Council meetings are held every other month over a day and half.  

You can submit an application to be considered for the Council by :

  1. Completing the DDC Membership Application on your computer. To complete the application you must have Adobe Acrobat Viewer.  
  2. Printing your completed application.  Remember to print a copy for your records as well.
  3. Signing and dating your application before sending it to the Council at the address at the bottom of this page. 

Our Application Instructions explain more about the application process and can be helpful when completing the DDC Membership Application.

If you prefer, you can print a blank DDC application and complete it by hand, then follow the steps listed above.

If neither of these options work, please contact Council staff and ask that a paper application be mailed to you.
