Advocating for Persons with Developmental Disabilities
Committed to person-centered services and supports to maximize independence and community engagement.
Community Connections
of MONITEAU COUNTY
"We must believe all people with disabilities are real people with unlimited potential, just like all people. People will live up (or down) to our expectations. If we expect people with disabilities to succeed, we cannot let labels stand in their way. A person's self image is strongly tied to the words used to describe the person. We must not let labels destroy the hopes and dreams of people with disabilities and their families. The only label a person really needs to use is his or her name.
"Disability is Natural"
