Our Mission
The mission of the Developmental Disabilities Administration is to provide leadership to assure the full participation of individuals with developmental disabilities and their families in all aspects of community life. In addition, DDA's goal is to promote their empowerment to access quality supports and services necessary to foster personal growth, independence and productivity.
DDA is committed to enabling all individuals with developmental disabilities to exercise the four principles of self-determination:
- FREEDOM to make choices
- AUTHORITY over services and support
- RESPONSIBILITY for organizing resources
- SUPPORTS necessary to live in the community
