The State of the States in Developmental Disabilities is a comparative nationwide longitudinal study of public financial commitments and programmatic trends in services and supports for people with IDD which is funded by the Administration on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. The project maintains a 35-year longitudinal record of revenue, spending, and programmatic trends in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the US as a whole. Data analysis reveals federal and state fiscal policy impact over time and illustrates trends in the states in community living, public and private residential institutions, family support, supported employment, supported living, Medicaid Waivers, demographics, and related areas. Data and corresponding analysis of programmatic trends are published biennially in The State of the States in Developmental Disabilities and maintained on an interactive website. This webinar will share highlights of the 2013 monograph, due out this Spring, as well as demonstrate how the interactive website can be used to develop tailored charts and graphs for use in state or regional advocacy efforts.
