The Ohio Developmental Disabilities Council has published a survey to gather information about the needs of Ohioans with disabilities. The data gathered from this survey will inform the development of a Five-Year State Plan, which aims to “improve independence, productivity and inclusion for people with developmental disabilities and their families in community life.” The Five-Year State Plan will be developed by a council selected by the governor and will create grant proposals for identified problem areas. The survey, which is available here, is open until January 31, 2020. If you are an individual with a disability, a parent or guardian of an individual with a disability, or a related stakeholder, consider completing this survey to voice your opinion about priority areas that are important to you.
