To register to receive electronic mail (email) notices of future RFPs, please visit our website (www.fddc.org) and click on “Funding Opportunities” in the left hand browser list, then click on the “Sign Up Now” in E-Mail Sign Up box and follow the directions.This Request for Proposal (RFP) is being issued by the Florida Developmental Disabilities Council to provide opportunities for public and private sector agencies, organizations, and other interested individuals to conduct local, regional, or statewide workshops, training sessions, and conferences that are directed at enhancing the quality of life for families and individuals with developmental disabilities in their community and reflect the Council’s mission and goals. This RFP is in response to the need demonstrated by the numerous requests received by the Council for funds to support workshops, training sessions and conferences. The Council believes that individuals with developmental disabilities should be included in all aspects of life – school, community, work, and play. Appropriate supports and services are needed to ensure full participation in the community. Successful inclusion and attainment of services and supports requires advocacy by individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. Such advocacy necessitates knowledge of disabilities, available supports and services, program requirements, best practices, federal and state laws, and numerous other aspects of the issues and systems for disability services.   Advocates who are more informed are better equipped to obtain the supports they need to live successful lives in the community. Advocates need training and access to information to help them navigate the complex disability system and empower them to obtain the support they need.Proposals should be submitted according to the appropriate quarterly deadlines to ensure they are received at least three (3) months prior to the date of the training or conference for which proposer is requesting funding. Submission of written questions is encouraged of all prospective proposers. The first quarter deadline for submitting written questions for this RFP is Wednesday, October 22, 2008 by 4:00 p.m. (EDT).
