The purpose of these projects is to provide regional support to self-advocacy organizations that focus on individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Although a region must include at least four states, each project will define its ‘region’ and select the States to
credit:
be in its region.
Each project will have a board or an advisory committee where a democratic process will be used to appoint representatives to a regional coalition.
The representatives will ensure that the self-advocacy movement is evident at the state and regional levels.
