Implementing a 21st Century
Disability Policy
This document was developed in 2008-2009 by the Massachusetts
Alliance for 21st Century Disability Policy (MA21). It is intended
for families and individuals- as well as elected officials and other
policymakers- to help them conceptualize what a comprehensive disability
policy can and should look like. MA21 is a partnership of some of
the Commonwealth's leading statewide disability advocacy organizations:
Massachusetts Families Organizing for Change (MFOFC), Massachusetts
Advocates Standing Strong (MASS), Massachusetts Developmental Disabilities
Council (MDCC), and The Arc of Massachusetts (The Arc), with additional
contributions from Advocates for Autism of Massachusetts (AFAM)
and the Massachusetts Down Syndrome Congress (MDSC). We hope and
expect that other advocacy organizations and providers will embrace
this document as well, creating consensus on a unified framework
through which to view and improve public policy for individuals
with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.
