In the absence of Chair Adonis Brown, Nessie Siler, Vice-Chair welcomed NCCDD 5-Year State Plan Development Ad Hoc Committee (5YSPD AHC) members.

Chris Egan updated the members on the recent Listening Sessions and the exceptional participation of staff, members and attendees.  Next week will finish the sessions in Monroe, Winston-Salem and Asheboro.  

The 5-Year Plan Development schedule was reviewed by the members.  Surveys are coming in but we still need more self-advocates to complete them.  The survey is open until 7/31/15.  Cheryl Powell asked for the comments and notes from the sessions and Chris said there will be a preliminary overall review at the August Council meeting by CIDD.  Cheryl mentioned that she felt – and had also heard from others – that the surveys seemed simplistic.  

Further discussion occurred regarding providers and MCOs needing more education on people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, that there wasn’t enough clinical/strong team basis and that there needs to be more enforcement of the ADA.

The next regularly scheduled meeting of the NCCDD 5-Year State Plan Development Ad Hoc Committee (5YSPD AHC) is Monday, September 21, 2015 from 9:00AM to 10:15AM.  (August is Council meeting month.)
