PDA USA improves access to education and information by creating scholarships, discounts, and resources for families. The organization advocates for PDA needs on public platforms, fosters community-building through supportive spaces, and informs research with PDA lived experiences. Professional knowledge is expanded by connecting lived experience with the professionals who serve PDA individuals across the lifespan and by fostering collaboration among those professionals. Through these efforts, PDA USA works to expand opportunities and reduce systemic barriers so that every PDA person and family can thrive!
