The Developmental Disabilities Coalition (DD Coalition) is comprised of the leading statewide organizations in Maryland dedicated to the rights and quality of life of people developmental disabilities. Member organizations include: People On the Go of Maryland, Maryland Developmental Disabilities Council, The Arc of Maryland, Maryland Association of Community Services, and Maryland Disabilities Law Center. Among other things, the DD Coalition advocates for quality supports and services in the community; the rights of individuals to live in the most integrated/inclusive setting; an end to segregating people with disabilities in institutions; and a significant reduction, and an eventual end, to the DDA’s Waiting List for community services.
