DDD Community Inclusion Services(CIS)
DDD Community Inclusion Services are programs designed to support individuals with developmental disabilities in actively participating and integrating into their community life. These services are part of broader efforts by the Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) to ensure that individuals with developmental disabilities have the opportunities to enjoy fulfilling lives in their communities, similar to all other citizens. Community Inclusion Services typically focus on several key areas:
