The DDAB needs input from people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities, family members, provider organizations, system partners, educators and others interested in support for people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities
VANCOUVER – The Clark County Developmental Disabilities Advisory Board (DDAB) is currently developing priorities for inclusion in the 2026-2030 Developmental Disabilities Comprehensive Plan.
The DDAB needs input from people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities, family members, provider organizations, system partners, educators and others interested in support for people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. Clark County Community Services’ staff developed a survey to collect this information.
The survey can be completed online or on paper and will take less than 10 minutes to complete. The survey is available in English, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian, Chuukese and Vietnamese. Feedback is used to understand resources available, and services needed in our community. Responses are confidential and anonymous.
The survey is available at https://clark.wa.gov/community-services/dd-comprehensive-plan. To request a paper copy or ask questions, email dd.program@clark.wa.gov or call Trish Buescher at (564) 397-7826.
Surveys will be collected through Oct. 31, 2025.
