NCCDD Launches Conversations with the Council

In the next episode, parent advocates Darcy Hildreth and Kerri Eaker discussed services and supports and how the Council has helped them educate others and become stronger advocates for their children over the years.
The episodes release on the last Tuesday of every month.
