Network Products and Activities

Network Activities

In FY21, over 1.9  million people and organizations received technical assistance from AUCD members, over 750,000 received continuing education, and over 155,000 families received clinical services such as diagnostic evaluations for developmental disabilities, therapies, and more.

 


Members of the AUCD network engage in a wide variety of activities daily as they work to promote inclusion, justice, health, and respect for all people with disabilities. For data collection purposes, their activities are grouped into three main categories: technical assistance (helping people finding resources and answers), continuing education (teaching), and diagnostic services (clinical medical and research activities).

Network Products

One of the strategic goals of AUCD is to conduct and apply research and share knowledge. Collectively, AUCD network member Centers and Programs produced over 10,000 expert products each year, including newsletters, books and book chapters, conference presentations, academic and online courses, fact sheets, and press communications. These items reach tens of millions of people, educating them on evidence-based information and guiding them to resources available for people with disabilities and their families.
