The New York Disability Advocates (NYDA) 2026–27 Budget Ask and Legislative Talking Points are now available. These materials outline NYDA’s priorities and funding recommendations for the upcoming state budget and are intended to support member organizations in their outreach to local elected officials.
Members are encouraged to review and utilize these documents when meeting with legislators to communicate the critical needs of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and the provider community that supports them.
If you have questions or wish to discuss the documents or key points in greater detail, please contact us. Please share any feedback received during your meetings with elected representatives, as this information is essential to our ongoing collective advocacy efforts.
