Help DDA Become More User Friendly! DRM calls on you to help Maryland’s Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA) with its Transformation of services and processes.  DDA has listened to the public and is making many changes.  Your opinions about these changes will matter, so DDA needs to hear from you.  You can learn more about the proposed changes and offer your opinions by participating in webinars and responding to surveys. This document provides more information about DDA Webinars and Information Sessions: DDA Webinars
