The Louisiana Developmental Disabilities Council’s 2024 Legislative Advocacy Agenda will be shared across the state at virtual LaCAN Regional Roundtables. Individuals with disabilities, family members and advocates are encouraged to attend to learn more about the advocacy agenda and how to get involved in the Council’s other advocacy opportunities like legislative visits, yellow shirt days and public testimony.
Take advantage of this incredible opportunity to receive valuable information about advocacy and connect with your regional legislators virtually.
