Developmental Disabilities Administration of Maryland
Description
What is DDA
The Developmental Disabilities Administration provides a coordinated service delivery system so that individuals with developmental disabilities receive appropriate services oriented toward the goal of integration into the community. These services are provided through a combination of four state residential centers (providing services to individuals with mental retardation) and a wide array of community based services delivered primarily through a network of non-profit providers.
DDA's Vision
The Developmental Disabilities Administration takes the leadership role in building partnerships and trust with families, providers, local and state agencies, and advocates to assure that individuals with developmental disabilities and their families have access to the resources necessary to foster growth, including those available to the general public. Because of our inherent belief in the rights and dignity of the individual, we are committed to:
The empowerment of all individuals with developmental disabilities and their families to choose the services and supports that meet their needs.
