Our mission is to build communities of support, acceptance, and opportunity for children, adults, and families living with developmental disabilities. We believe people with developmental disabilities, and their families, are among the most challenged, excluded and vulnerable people in society. In response, AADD works to build strong communities that encourage and support all individuals to:

  • Make informed choices
  • Participate in sporting, social, and recreational activities
  • Live in safe and positive environments
  • Grow, develop, and access and utilize resources
  • Achieve health and wellness throughout their lives.

For many of the people we support, AADD means the difference between stability and homelessness, sickness and health, isolation and inclusion, discrimination and dignity.

As we celebrate more than 50 years of service, AADD continues to develop its legacy of leadership and history of creating hope for people living with developmental disabilities.

We invite you to join us - whether it's signing up for our services, donating your time, services or monetary contributions, or simply helping spread the word about all the good work we do.

AADD is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer, and an Equal Opportunity provider.
