Massachusetts Developmental Disabilities Council
MISSION
The mission of the Massachusetts Developmental Disabilities Council (MDDC) is to provide opportunities for people with developmental disabilities and their families to enhance independence, productivity, integration and inclusion. It is the Council's belief that the greatest impact on public policy occurs through self-advocacy, supported by the development and maintenance of strong coalitions. We work to bring people with developmental disabilities and their families together with policy makers to advocate on their own behalf. The Council fosters and supports coalitions with other advocacy and community groups, and supports close working relationships among and between the various public and private service providers.
