About Florida Developmental Disabilities Council

Florida Developmental Disabilities Council Inc uses federal funds to implement a Florida state plan for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, with recent awards reaching statewide implementing organizations, universities, advocacy groups, and research partners. One recent award of $1,027,103 went to Mathematica for state plan implementation, alongside $573,190 to FL Association of Rehabilitation and $400,677 to the National Assoc for the Dually Diagn. The portfolio also includes recurring support for implementation partners such as Pathways Resolution Center, the University of Florida Board of Trustees, and the Autistic Self Advocacy Network. Much of the work sits at the intersection of access to services, provider capacity, behavioral health supports, case management, and service quality. The council also funds communications and project evaluation, showing that it backs both delivery and the infrastructure needed to monitor and translate results. Its active programs include competitive funding opportunities, Requests for Bids, and recurring awards tied to advocacy training and leadership recognition for people with developmental disabilities and their family members.

What Florida Developmental Disabilities Council Funds

A core theme is state plan implementation. The council backed FL Association of Rehabilitation with $573,190 in 2024 and $521,124 in 2023 to carry out that work, and it also awarded $328,295 to Fau Board of Trustees for the same purpose in 2023. Research and service translation is another strand: University of Massachusetts Boston received $245,702 in 2023 for state plan implementation, while a separate bid set aside up to $200,000 for translating research into applied services and increasing access. Advocacy and leadership training are also visible in the portfolio. The council funds Partners in Policymaking coordinator and curriculum projects, and it runs annual recognition awards for family advocates and self-advocates. Communications appears as its own line of support too, with Rb Oppenheim Associates Inc receiving awards for communications work in both 2024 and 2025.

How Florida Developmental Disabilities Council Gives

The typical grant size is $36,984 at the 25th percentile, $102,204 at the median, and $204,212 at the 75th percentile. Recent awards show both mid-sized contracts and larger implementation grants, including repeated support to the same organizations across multiple years, which points to ongoing project relationships rather than one-off awards. The council is a public, program-implementation funder rather than an individual-giving institution, and it uses competitive grants, Requests for Bids, and annual awards. Some procurements are unsolicited bid opportunities, while others are not, depending on the program. Federal funds are explicitly tied to several bid-based awards.
