OUR MISSION
- To serve as an extension of county boards to meet their identified needs.
- To assure quality services for persons with developmental disabilities through cooperation with service providers.
- To offer enhanced expertise to county boards through sharing of resources to achieve greater efficiency.
My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn’t prevent you doing well, and don’t regret the things it interferes with. Don’t be disabled in spirit as well as physically”
