ODPANN 24-009: Registration Now Open: Office of Developmental Programs’ (ODP) Policy Division’s Virtual Meeting & Conversation with Individuals and Families Session 3 Navigating ODP Resources
Often, information is delivered in a way that makes more sense to providers than to
individuals and families. ODP wants to begin closing that gap by providing a series of
meetings intended for individuals and families to provide an opportunity for them to
learn about interested topics and ask questions or provide comments to people who
work in ODP policy.
This series of virtual meetings and conversations will be on topics prepared by ODP
through a webinar format (using a PowerPoint) but will be a conversational event
between individuals and families and ODP’s Policy Division. ODP intends for this to be a
time where individuals and families are provided educational information in a
conversational environment specifically about the topic discussed.
These meetings are informal, meaning the conversation will not be recorded, and rules
will be set before the meeting starts to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to
provide questions, comments, etc. relating to the topic.
