Advocacy is one of the Council’s strongest initiatives. Here is how you can get involved in advocacy for North Carolina’s disability community!

Public Voices

DHHS agencies, the Council and other organizations look for feedback from the community and people they serve. The agencies and organizations host important listening sessions across the State that encourage people to voice their opinions on disability issues that affect them the most. Whether it is a local town hall meeting or a North Carolina agency listening tour, be involved in advocacy for issues that matter to you and your community.
