Who We Are

Picture of Council members and staff

The Tennessee Council on Developmental Disabilities is a State office that promotes public policies to increase and support the inclusion of individuals with developmental disabilities in their communities. The Council works with public and private groups across the State to find necessary supports for individuals with disabilities and their families, so that they may have equal access to public education, employment, housing, health care, and all other aspects of community life. The Council encourages individuals with developmental disabilities and their families to play decision-making roles in policies and programs that affect them.
