The Rhode Island Developmental Disabilities Council

Council members and staff believe that people with developmental disabilities should fully participate in community life. Men, women and children should be able to enjoy family life. Children and adolescents should go to school. Adults should work. All should have decent homes, friends and live as independently as possible.
