Strategic Planning Forums to Occur May – July
OPWDD is again holding in-person and online stakeholder forums to report agency progress toward strategic goals and projects and to hear from stakeholders. Six regional, in-person forums will occur across the state, and two additional online forums will be held for a statewide audience. The 2024 forums will follow a more interactive format than in previous years, with participants invited to make public comments and to submit questions in advance that will be addressed at the forum. OPWDD uses the feedback gathered through these annual forums to inform agency priorities and direction, and to share important information about the work of the agency to improve and advance support for New Yorkers with developmental disabilities. OPWDD will seek to broaden the audience of the 2024 forums to ensure the agency hears from as many voices and perspectives as possible. Please register to participate in a forum using the link below. You can register to attend a forum and find more information about OPWDD's Strategic Plan on our Strategic Planning page.
