About this Event
Developmental Disabilities Awareness Day
DD Day!!
It has been 36 years of Developmental Disabilities Awareness Day, which has evolved into the biggest conference for developmental disabilities. Over the years we have brought to the conference wonderful keynotes, entertainment, art room, vendor fair, awards, Healthy You corner and so much more. However, it would not be a success without our presenters, individuals, parents and professionals from the Western New York area who work together to present a comprehensive, informative conference about developmental disabilities.
In keeping with this tradition, we are pleased to announce the 36th “Developmental Disabilities Awareness Day” Conference and Fair to be held on Tuesday, May 21, 2024 at the Niagara Falls Convention Center.
Professionals from many different area agencies that specialize in services for people with developmental disabilities and similar health related industries will be on hand to provide guidance, literature, and general information about services that the organizations or businesses provide.
DDDAY, has long been a staple of the WNY developmentally disabled community, bringing together local and regional agencies, industry connected vendors and suppliers, direct support professionals and the individuals that all of these groups support. The conference is the largest one of its kind in the United States and has been growing bigger and more sophisticated with every year.
Several awards for personal achievement, direct service provider of the year, community service of the year and caregiver of the year are presented at the convention’s luncheon. Awards are presented to professionals, organizations and individuals with developmental disabilities. The awards luncheon is emceed by a local celebrity.
Rounding out the day’s attractions and festivities are an art show featuring artwork from local artists with disabilities, Healthy You forum, entertainment by Universal Minds during our event reception.
