Join the Conversation: OPWDD Embraces Diversity, Equity and Inclusion to Improve Service Delivery and Quality for People With Developmental Disabilities We want to hear from YOU. Join our virtual community forum to share your thoughts. People with developmental disabilities from diverse communities can face barriers to accessing supports and services to meet their needs. OPWDD is proud to be partnering with Georgetown University’s National Center for Cultural Competence to address these barriers and infuse cultural and linguistic competence, diversity, equity, and inclusion into all components of New York’s developmental disability service system. As we kick-off this transformative initiative, we invite you to learn about the activities ahead and share your thoughts and questions with us at one of several virtual community forums throughout the month of June listed below. The forums are open to people with developmental disabilities, their friends and family members and developmental disabilities service providers. Register Today!
