- Overseeing the design and implementation of the quality management and improvement plan
DHHS-DD informs the advisory committee of proposed changes at least thirty days before changes start so the advisory committee may response

- A statewide advocacy organization for persons with developmental disabilities and their families
- Nebraska's designated protection and advocacy organization
- The Nebraska Planning Council on Developmental Disabilities
- The University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disability Education, Research and Service
