Details

National Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month is observed in March in the U.S.  This class of disabilities can refer to impairments in learning and behavior, such as autism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and impairments in physical and/or intellectual functioning such as Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, and Down Syndrome.  The campaign seeks to raise awareness about including people with developmental disabilities in all facets of community life.  It also creates awareness of the difficulties that people with disabilities still face in fitting into the communities in which they live.
