A primary goal of the National Leadership Consortium is to promote knowledge and skills in disabilities field leaders that will advance best practices in services and supports for people with disabilities. To support this, we produce a variety of publications to bridge the gap between evidence-based approaches, research, and practices in the real world.
The National Leadership Consortium on Developmental Disabilities offers intensive week-long Leadership Institutes (virtual and in-person), region-specific cohorts, and distance-learning options for emerging and current leaders in the I/DD field. It provides customized training for agencies and state DD departments, mentoring and executive-level support, and a community of practice to sustain learning. The site also hosts practical resources and publications—including a bulletin, research briefs, reports, and annual reports—plus curated links and an “upcoming events” listing for new cohorts and workshops.
