Past Council Projects

When you use the R-word you never know who is listening, it could be someone with a disability or someone who has a family member with a disability.                                     

OAALA is an advocacy training to train individuals interested in advocating on issues related to aging.

This project works with self-advocates to define current obstacles they face when parenting with a disability and educate their natural supports and professional providers about the barriers that exist.  

With this partnership with Oklahoma ABLE Tech, the Council was able to provide up-to-date technology devices for the students attending the Council advocacy training programs.

Dale Rogers Training Center (DRTC) work towards supporting employees with integrated competive employment.                                                                    

Better Lives is bringing People Planning Together (PPT) to Oklahoma. PPT is developed by and for people who experience life with disabilities. The training walks people through the process of hands-on discovery of the things.

The Council is excited to be working with Oklahoma State University as they work this year in developing their inclusive postsecondary education program for students with intellectual disabilities.
