Each March, the National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities (NACDD), the Association of University Centers on Disabilities (AUCD), and the National Disabilities Rights Network (NDRN) partner together to highlight the many ways in which people with and without disabilities come together to form strong, diverse communities.

This campaign seeks to raise awareness about the inclusion of people with developmental disabilities in all areas of community life, as well as awareness of the barriers that people with disabilities still sometimes face in connecting to the communities in which they live. Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month focuses on three main areas of life: education, employment and community living.
