The Advisory Committee on Developmental Disabilities is governed by Nebraska Revised Statute §83-1212.01.
Purpose
The advisory committee advises DHHS on funding and delivery of services. This includes:
- Providing oversight to make sure people placed in the custody of the department under the Developmental Disabilities Court-Ordered Custody Act receive the least restrictive treatment and services necessary;
- Overseeing the design and implementation of the quality management and improvement plan; and
- Assisting, providing feedback, and guiding the implementation of the family support program under Nebraska Revised Statute §68-1530.
DDD informs the advisory committee of proposed changes at least thirty days before changes start so the advisory committee may respond.
Membership
The advisory committee includes representatives of:
- A statewide advocacy organization for persons with developmental disabilities and their families;
- Nebraska's protection and advocacy organization;
- The Nebraska Planning Council on Developmental Disabilities (NCDD); and
- The University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disability Education, Research and Service (UCEDD).
There may be up to 15 additional members. At least 51% of members are people with developmental disabilities and their family members.
Members are appointed by the Governor for three year terms, with a designated chairperson.
