Dear Community Partners,
Governor Wes Moore has proclaimed March as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month in Maryland, recognizing the unlimited potential of Marylanders with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month is observed nationwide every March to promote understanding, inclusion, and advocacy for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The Developmental Disabilities Administration is excited to showcase not only the great work that our team, providers, vendors and stakeholders continue to do to improve the lives of those who receive services and supports, but also to bring continued attention to the achievements of those individuals who are thriving in the communities in which they choose to live, work, play, and engage. To celebrate, the Developmental Disabilities Administration devotes this entire edition to highlighting a few inspiring stories you shared with us!
Sincerely,
Marlana R. Hutchinson
Deputy Secretary
Developmental Disabilities Administration
