The Adults and Elders Program works to improve health services
for adults and elders with developmental disabilities through developing
training materials for health care professionals, community-based
residential providers, and family members; conducting research to
assess the status of service delivery; and advocating for systems
change. General goals of this program are to increase the awareness
of the needs of adults with developmental disabilities and build
the capacity of health professionals to meet those needs.
Adults and Elders collaborates closely with the Arc
of King County and the Washington
State Developmental Disabilities Council.
