AAIDD's 17 Divisions and Sigs coordinate professional and divisional activities within the Association. These divisions oversee programs for continuing education and promote membership and membership services at the divisional level for AAIDD's diverse membership.

You may join any divisions and/or SIGs that may be of professional interest to you for a nominal fee per division/SIG.
