P&A Opens Public Comment Period on Agency’s 2027 Focus Areas
The North Dakota Protection & Advocacy Project (P&A) is now seeking public input to help shape its 2027 focus areas. Feedback from people with disabilities, families, advocates, and community partners helps guide how P&A prioritizes services, advocacy efforts, and resources. The public comment period is open May 1–31, 2026. Share your input and help ensure our work reflects the most important needs across North Dakota.
Help Prevent Abuse and Neglect
More than 70 million people with disabilities need Protection and Advocacy (P&A) services, but funding for these programs does not meet that need. That’s why we need your help. Currently, letters are circulating in the House of Representative to support increased funding for P&As. This funding will empower P&As to address new needs from the disability community, like aging and caregiving, while continuing their current important work, like free legal advocacy and investigations into institutions.
Join us in ensuring that people with disabilities can fully participate in their communities. Click the link to send a note to your Representative asking them to support increased funding.
