We are thrilled to share with you the next recipient of the 2025 NDRN Advocacy Award: Disability Rights North Dakota!
DRND has been selected for their outstanding work challenging the state’s ongoing efforts to enact an IMD (Institutions for Mental Disease) Exclusion Waiver. DRND demonstrated exceptional fortitude and unwavering advocacy in pushing back against the state’s attempts to approve these waivers. DRND’s efforts, often in the face of strong political and corporate opposition, have made clear that the rights and dignity of individuals with disabilities must never be compromised.

Their leadership has not only made a critical impact in North Dakota but also set an inspiring example for the entire P&A network. This recognition is well deserved and highlights the power of persistent, principled advocacy.
