Dear Commissioner Allen:
On behalf of the National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities (NACDD), I would like to extend our congratulations to you on your appointment as the new Commissioner of the Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA). We commend your commitment to building partnerships with other Federal agencies and stakeholders, elevating community expectations for competitive integrated employment, and ensuring that all individuals with disabilities can access competitive integrated employment.
We are particularly moved by your dedication to keeping individuals with disabilities at the forefront of your RSA initiatives. As the national membership organization representing the State Councils on Developmental Disabilities, NACDD would like to offer our support to achieve these goals. Our network of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), family members, and member program professionals and leaders is committed to working alongside RSA to prepare individuals with disabilities for fulfilling careers.
We look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you and your team on these efforts. Please do not hesitate to contact us if NACDD can be of assistance.
Once again, congratulations on your appointment as Commissioner of the Rehabilitation Services Administration. We are excited to work together to ensure that individuals with disabilities are supported in their jobs and have access to the resources to seek, obtain, and be successful in competitive integrated employment.
