DD Council Seeks Applicants for Membership

***Applications due by June 29, 2012***

The Ohio Developmental Disabilities Council (ODDC) is currently seeking applicants for membership terms beginning in January 2013. Council membership must comply with categories listed in the federal DD Act. Openings this year will be for the following categories:

·         two (2) individuals with a developmental disability

·         one (1) immediate relative or guardian of an institutionalized or previously institutionalized individual with a developmental disability or an individual with a developmental disability who resides or previously resided in an institution. 

All candidates for DD Council membership should have experience serving on committees, boards, or organizations. Such experience concerned with persons with developmental disabilities would be especially relevant. Applicants should have first-hand knowledge about developmental disabilities in Ohio. 

It is very important that applicants have time to attend six meetings per year and serve on at least two committees. Each meeting of Council occurs over a two-day period.

Governor John Kasich will appoint members for three-year terms beginning January 1, 2013, and ending December 31, 2016. Application packets are available from the ODDC office or you may download the application from ODDC’s website at www.ddc.ohio.gov and must be completed and returned to the office by June 29, 2012.
