Webinar

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) invites individuals with intellectual disabilities and/or autism and their families to join in a virtual exploration and discussion with members of the Division of Policy and Program Innovation. These sessions are informal, meaning the conversation will not be recorded, and rules will be set before the session starts to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to provide questions and comments. The session will be held through Microsoft Teams.

Please note: This event is being held only for individuals and family members; this is not an event for someone who is only a professional.

What Will Be Covered?
Family members often want to stay as involved as possible with the services their relative receives. This session will consist of an overview of services that family members can provide through ODP’s 1915(c) waivers, as well as who is considered family and other important definitions. The session will also include time to explore where this information can be found.

Audience:
Individuals and Families

Date:
September 18, 2025, 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm

This presentation will discuss the formation of a novel and innovative version of a standard Youth Advisory Council (YAC). This particular YAC adds a twist to the traditional means of involving youth by creating a council combining voices of individuals served who have two very different diagnoses: those with an emotional/behavioral disorder (EBD) and those with an autism/intellectual disability (ASD/IDD). Spanning across three states, this internal YAC has been established to hear the voices of and to teach leadership principles and skills to those who are receiving the services offered by Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health.

Presenters:

  • Amy Kelly, MBA, MNM, National Director of Family Engagement, Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health
  • Judy Starr, JD, Deputy General Counsel, Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health

Objectives: Following this course, the learner will:

  • Describe the value of constituents’ voices from services and programs provided, regardless of individual communication type, cognitive ability, or diagnosis;
  • Discuss how to engage leadership and staff to support and sponsor a youth/constituent advisory council; and
  • List some “lessons from the journey” with do’s and don’ts when developing a youth advisory council.
