The North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities has named new standing committee chairpersons, including Daniel Smith, for the upcoming year. The council has three committees geared to its Five Year State Plan, a strategic plan that contracts out initiatives and programs for the intellectual and other developmental disabilities communities across the state.

Smith, a parent of a child with a disability, is an attorney with the law firm of Brooks, Pierce, McLendon, Humphrey & Leonard in Greensboro and will chair NCCDD’s financial asset development committee.

Smith has advised and represented clients on issues including special needs education and disabilities, bullying, and education-related provisions of the North Carolina and U.S. constitutions.
