Developing Relationships - February 2026

It’s not what you know, but who you know. Have you ever heard that before? Of course, you have because relationships with other people are one of the most meaningful aspects of life, for better or for worse. That is what we will talk about - developing and maintaining healthy relationships, and ending the unhealthy ones. Join and share the story about how you met your BFF of 10+ years, or tell the story of how you befriended your state representative who now has your telephone number on speed dial, or talk about how an old girlfriend or boyfriend introduced you to your current husband or wife. You could even share about ending a relationship that was not good for you. About this webinar series: The North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities (NCCDD) hosts a monthly Self-Advocate Discussion Series webinar every third Wednesday of the month. The series aims to keep North Carolina self-advocates informed and engaged in discussion on topics of social and systems change. Series sessions are a time to connect with others with lived experience and common interests, and to develop impact strategies for telling personal stories, and stay connected with the NCCDD community. Webinars are held on the third Wednesday of each month at 1 pm.
