The Wisconsin Board for People with Developmental Disabilities advocates for the independence and inclusion of people with developmental disabilities in Wisconsin.

What is a developmental disability? Under Wisconsin State Law, a developmental disability is defined as a list of conditions: brain injury, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism, Prader-Willi syndrome, intellectual disability, or another neurological condition closely associated to an intellectual disability. The condition must be severe and permanent.

The Board believes that all people, including people with disabilities and their families, have the same basic rights associated with the status of citizenship. All people have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; the right to be treated with respect and dignity; and the right to direct one's own life, to control one's own destiny.
