CONNECT WITH PEOPLE LIKE YOU

We are driven by the fundamental belief that everyone deserves to write their own life story. For people with intellectual and other developmental disabilities (IDD) that means:


  • Real access to education. Meaningful employment. Quality healthcare. Genuine community connections


Through our Supported Living, Information and Family Support, and Public Policy & Civic Engagement programs we protect, promote, and build communities where we can all thrive as equal, valued, and active participants

You can help end isolation


Isolation is a dangerous practice in which students in distress are forced into spaces and not allowed to leave. It is expensive, harmful, and traumatic. You can help.

First, learn more about what isolation is, who it impacts, and what its costs are - both in terms of the child's mental health and its toll on school communities.  

Then share the short video.
