Fall Seminar: A Brief History of Developmental Disabilities—What Have We Learned from the Past Fifty Years

“While tremendous progress has been made in enhancing life opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities over the past 50 years – both nationally and in our own state – that progress has only come through vigorous advocacy. The power of personal stories, as a keystone of that advocacy, cannot be underestimated. We will share some of those stories, the lessons they have taught us, as well as the challenges that we still face.” – Harold Kleinert
