The DD Council has various grants available to help offset some of the costs of getting more involved in civic and political processes in your community and state.
Conference Participation Scholarships The DD Council works to connect Iowans with a developmental disability and their family members with the knowledge and skills needed to become more involved in the decision-making processes that impacts their ability to be fully included in their community.
To assist in this effort, we provide grants of up to $1,000 annually to statewide organizations to support the participation of Iowans with developmental disabilities and their family members at our conferences. Organizations such as Easter Seals, the Autism Society of Iowa, and the Iowa Braille and Sight Saving School have benefitted in the past.
They used the funds to cover items such as registration fees for individuals who wished to attend, transportation to and from the conference, and other expenses necessary for an individual with a developmental disability and/or a family member to attend.
