What is the Council Consortium?

A collaborative online DD Council community designed to help with information exchange and communication on state plan projects and initiatives.

You are invited to participate in the next Council Consortium for 2020 on August 25, 2020 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time.  Considering Councils are developing their next 5-year state plan, we would like to have a conversation to explore how Councils are taking their employment initiatives to the next level.

The purpose of the Council Consortium is to exchange ideas, promising or best practices; lessons learned from work on specific topics; insights on collaborators or partners; and identify any challenges incurred.  Councils are strongly encouraged to talk specifically about their work and sharing will open the dialogue for further discussion.

The conversation will take place on Tuesday August 25, 2020 at 3 pm ET.  The Zoom information is below

This will be an opportunity for participants to brainstorm with their peers about building upon current employment initiatives and what they are thinking about in terms of making investments in the next 5-year state plan.  In addition, it will be an opportunity to explore how Councils can take what they know (education about employment) about employment and people with I/DD as well as the impact of the pandemic and economic recovery to effectively get people with I/DD in the workforce.

If you are interested in presenting or sharing your DD Council's work on this topic please let Robin know by August 19th.

We look forward to your participation in the Learning Consortium on August 25th.
