Community Engagement

CalHHS has launched a campaign in the communities and neighborhoods across the state to engage individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, families, and system partners in the communities and neighborhoods to better understand their hopes and dreams for a 21st century developmental services system.

This Master Plan will not be developed in a vacuum in Sacramento, instead, it will meet people where they are to collectively learn about their lived experiences and use that to help shape the future of this system—a system that looks to provide culturally responsive services which meet the diverse needs of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

If you would like to host a roundtable discussion in your community or have recommendations of places or communities for us to highlight, please email us at DSMasterPlan@chhs.ca.gov.

A list of community engagement sessions attended with dates and who they spoke with is being developed and will be added to this section.
