Developmental Disability Resource Board of Jasper County and Connections Abilities Resources invite area residents to
celebrate March as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. This
national observance offers a chance to learn more about the value of the
disability experience and the vital contributions people with disabilities are
making in our communities. People with developmental disabilities are
frequently defined by their disability which can lead to feelings of
isolation. Take time to celebrate the existence of the DD community so
they feel affirmed and integrated into society. DDRBJC and Connections,
through leadership and advocacy, promote and support quality comprehensive
community services for persons with developmental disabilities and their
families in Jasper County. For more information, contact us at 417.206.2886.
