xUniversity Centers on Disabilities (AUCD) since 1970. AUCD is a
xnational network of interdisciplinary centers advancing policy and practice through research, education, leadership, and services for, and with, individuals with developmental and other disabilities, their families, and communities.

Indiana’s Developmental Disabilities Network

The Indiana Institute partners with Indiana’s Governor’s Council for People with Disabilities and the Indiana Protection and Advocacy Services to ensure that individuals with developmental disabilities and their families participate in the design of, and have access to, culturally competent services, supports, and other assistance and opportunities that promote independence, productivity, and inclusion into the community. Each of these organizations receive funding through the Administration on Developmental Disabilities.

The Executive Directors of each organization meet quarterly to review activities, map
strategies for state policy, and identify collaborative projects. Last year, this
partnership worked together to cosponsor the Indiana Self-Advocates Conference held in Bloomington, Indiana. Additionally, a pilot series was put into practice designed to build leadership and advocacy skills in persons with disabilities, implemented a Customer Satisfaction Research Project for Indiana’s Protection and Advocacy Services, and disseminated a state-wide disability survey to assess state priorities for Indiana’s State
Disability Plan.
