April 10 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am
We’re excited to announce a training session on the Independent Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Ombudsman Program (IDDO), established under New York State Mental Hygiene Law § 33.28 in 2023. The IDDO offers independent advocacy for individuals with developmental disabilities.
The session will cover the IDDO’s mission, services, and role in supporting individuals with developmental disabilities. There will also be a Q&A for deeper insights.
We encourage DDAWNY members, staff, and families to attend this informative session. Don’t miss it!
In December 2024, the New York State Office for People with Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD) appointed the Community Service Society of New York (CSSNY) to lead the IDDO, which operates independently of OPWDD and other government entities.
