SUMMARY:Optimal Continuum Action Collaborative: Universal Supports
DESCRIPTION:This interactive series will explore how states can design and strengthen a continuum of supports grounded in wellness\, prevention\, and person-centered practices across the lifespan. \nThese sessions are designed for NASDDDS members and their state partners. We encourage you to invite cross-system colleagues — because building an optimal continuum takes collective leadership. \nYou may attend individual sessions\, but we strongly recommend participating in the full series to understand the Optimal Continuum of Supports framework in its entirety and how each dimension connects.
