NAQ
NAQ is the leading national association for Developmental Disability Professionals. These professionals go by many names—QIDPs, Service Coordinators and Case Managers to name just a few. Formal titles aside, Developmenal Disability Professionals fulfill a variety of roles—from advocate to educator to leader. They are resilient in the face of challenge and uncompromising in the provision of person-directed supports. NAQ has been the go-to organization for these exceptional professionals since it was established in 1996 – providing an avenue for connecting with other professionals, sharing evidence-based best practices, and serving as a resource for learning and continued education.
