Our community partner, the Department of Integrated Services for Individuals with Disabilities (DISID), recently announced its 3rd Annual Targeted Assessment Survey 2026, which will be conducted from August 17 through September 18, 2026.

The survey is intended to gather feedback from individuals with disabilities, their families, caregivers, and those who support individuals with disabilities. The information collected will help DISID Division of Support Services better understand community needs, identify gaps in services, and guide future planning and improvements to our programs and services.

Participation is voluntary and confidential. The survey can be conveniently accessed by scanning the QR code on the attached post or by visiting the survey link provided below.

GDDC SEEKS PUBLIC INPUT FOR STATE PLAN

The Guam Developmental Disabilities Council (GDDC) is seeking public input as it finalizes the 2027-2031 Five-Year State Plan. The plan will guide the Council’s priorities and activities to advocate for and support individuals with developmental disabilities and their families in Guam.

Public input is essential to ensuring that the State Plan reflects the needs of those most affected. Your feedback will help guide efforts to promote inclusion, independence, self-determination, and full participation in community life.

The 45-DAY PUBLIC COMMENT period opens Monday, June 22, 2026 and closes August 7, 2026. Additionally, an in-person public input session is scheduled for Monday, July 13, from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. at the Sinajana Mayor’s Office, Heritage Room.

We invite members of the public to review the plan and submit written input.

To request a copy of the draft state plan or for additional information, please contact the Guam Developmental Disabilities Council office by calling (671) 735-9127 or emailing [email protected].
