PADD - Protection and Advocacy for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities

     PADD serves individuals with a severe mental or physical impairment that developed before age 22 which causes multiple major functional limitations that are expected to last indefinitely.

     The program also serves young children from birth to age 5 with developmental disabilities, or with conditions that may lead to developmental disabilities without services.

     PADD typically assists in securing rights to:

  • Appropriate treatment
  • A free and appropriate public education
  • Freedom from discrimination in housing and family services
  • Accessibility
  • Financial entitlements including Medicaid services and children's SSI
  • Freedom from abuse and neglect
  • Other rights related to the disability
