AADD

AADD Developmental disabilities are defined as severe chronic disabilities that limit three or more critical functional abilities.

Founded in 1989, Bobby Dodd Institute (BDI) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to empower people with disabilities and disadvantages to maximize their potential by securing economic self-sufficiency, independence and integration into society. Examples include Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, autism disorders, fetal alcohol disorders and intellectual disabilities. These disabilit

ies often manifest early in life (before age 22) and last a lifetime. Georgia relies on a disjointed system of services and support that cannot be sustained long-term. Economic uncertainties are reducing funding support, even as the number of people in need increases. AADD offers a range of services focusing on Family Support, Public Policy and Advocacy and Community Engagement. For more information, go to www.AADD.org or call us at (404) 881-9777.

Direct support professionals (DSPs) ensure that individuals living with disabilities have the necessary supports that enable them to live, work, and enjoy life as independently as possible, in their own communities.

DSPs work in a number of different settings, and often have opportunities to share their own passions and talents with the people they support.

AADD would like to say Thank You to our dedicated team of Direct Support Professionals!
