AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 29 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE DELAWARE DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES COUNCIL.
This Act codifies the Delaware Developmental Disabilities Council (“DDC”), which was created through Executive Order No. 123 in 1982 and placed in the Department of Safety and Homeland Security in the FY 2007 Budget Act. The DDC is established to undertake advocacy, capacity building, and systemic change activities that contribute to a coordinated, consumer- and family-centered, consumer- and family-directed, comprehensive system of community services, and individualized supports for Delawareans with developmental disabilities. The DDC is required by the federal Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 and this Act incorporates the requirements of this federal law in establishing the requirements for DDC membership, the responsibilities of the DDC, and protections to avoid conflicts of interest in the awarding of funds.
