Thank you for visiting the Developmental Disabilities Community Network. This site is designed primarily to provide resources and support to caregivers serving persons with disabilities or others with a passion for the disabled. Although our focus is on developmental or intellectual disabilities, we hope to provide a forum on a wide range of disability issues.

We hope to provide resources and encouragement to families, churches, and others in their efforts to provide the best possible support and training to those with whom they relate. We also hope this will serve as a forum for others to share their successes, tips, and frustrations.

Our secondary purpose is to provide information about the services, ministries, needs and volunteer opportunities of Developmental Disabilities Ministries. We sincerely hope this becomes a valuable resource for you.
