WHAT IS I/DD?
Intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDDs) are disorders that are usually present at birth and that negatively affect the trajectory of the individual’s physical, intellectual, and/or emotional development.
Some well known disabilities include Down Syndrome, Autism, and Cerebral Palsy although there are many others.
