For Immediate Release

June 24, 2024

WASHINGTON–The National Council on Disability (NCD) invites the public to present public comment during the Council’s next quarterly meeting Thursday via Zoom.

During a 30-minute public comment session starting at 4 p.m. EDT, the Council will receive input on what presenters consider the most notable disability policy achievements since Summer 2023. The Council would also like to hear about any missed opportunities within those achievements.

The public comment period provides an opportunity for NCD hear from you – individuals, businesses, providers, educators, parents and advocates.

Data from comments collected may be included in NCD’s upcoming annual Progress Report.

Public comment guidelines are available on NCD’s public comment page at https://www.ncd.gov/public-comment/.

Those wanting to participate in public comment must preregister, either through indicating they want to provide public comment during the standard registration process for the meeting or by sending an email to publiccomment@ncd.gov by 8 p.m. EDT June 26.

Because of the virtual format, the Council will receive public comment by email or by video or audio/phone over Zoom. To provide public comment during an NCD Council Meeting, NCD now requires advanced registration by either signing up to present while registering for the meeting or sending an email to PublicComment@ncd.gov with the subject line “Public Comment” and your name, organization, state, and topic of comment included in the body of your email. Deadline for registration is June 26, 8:00 p.m. EDT.

If any time remains following the conclusion of the comments of those registered, NCD may call upon those who desire to make comments on the topic but did not register.

The Council meeting is free and open to the public. Full information on the event can also be found on our upcoming meeting page.

CART and ASL will be provided.
