About the Atlanta Alliance on Developmental Disabilities

Founded in 1956, AADD (www.aadd.org) has grown from a local, grass-roots not-for-profit organization founded by a group of concerned parents to become Georgia's premiere provider of family support, advocacy, and education for children, adults, and families living with developmental disabilities. In its 51-year history, AADD has been at the forefront of building strong collaborative partnerships. The result of these partnerships is increased public awareness of the benefits to our culture when we are inclusive of persons with developmental disabilities, and the promotion of needed policy change to ensure that people living with developmental disabilities are heard and respected at every level of society.
