Through its grants, the Foundation aims to empower people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to -Make choices and decisions based on their own aspirations. -Live as independently and be as productive as possible. -Participate fully in their communities.
Our vision
We envision a world in which people with disabilities will -Share ordinary places in their local communities (such as stores, gyms, libraries and museums) at the same time and in the same ways as their neighbors. -Develop a support network that includes a wide range of personal and social relationships. -Fill valued roles in and make contributions to their communities.
