Council Members

Council members set goals for the Council and help guide our work. They bring different experiences, skills, and ideas that help us make progress on our goals.

The governor appoints Council members. A federal law called the Developmental Disabilities Act (DD Act) has rules about who serves on the Council. Most Council members are people with developmental disabilities and family members.

Council members include:

  • People with developmental disabilities
  • Family members of people with developmental disabilities
  • State agencies
  • Community organizations
  • Community Legal Aid Society, Inc./Disabilities Law Program
  • Center for Disabilities Studies/University of Delaware
