Mission Statement

LaCAN's mission is to advocate for a service system that supports people with disabilities to live in their own homes rather than having to be segregated from their communities in a facility to receive needed services. LaCAN is an initiative of the Louisiana Developmental Disabilities Council

Description

The Louisiana Developmental Disabilities Council's mission is to lead and promote advocacy, capacity building, and systemic change to improve the quality of life for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. We envision a system of services and supports in Louisiana which enable individuals with developmental disabilities to exercise self-determination, be independent, productive and integrated and included in all facets of community life.

One of the ways we work toward this vision is through the support of our grassroots advocacy network, LaCAN.
