Texas Council for Developmental Disabilities 

Our mission is to create change so that all people with disabilities are fully included in their communities and exercise control over their own lives. 

TCDD is one of 56 state councils on developmental disabilities (DD) in the U.S. and its territories created through the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act. State councils on developmental disabilities work to ensure that people with DD have opportunities to live in the communities of their choice, be independent, have jobs, and access services and supports needed for full participation in community life.
