Get to know who we are, what we stand for, and how we support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities across San Francisco, San Mateo, and Marin counties.
We help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities—and their families—find the services they need to live well. From early support to help in adulthood, we’ll connect you with programs and resources that match your needs, interests, and goals, and support you throughout your entire life.
We’ll work closely with you to understand your goals and help you get the services you need. We’ll walk with you every step of the way, guide you through the process, and speak up for your needs—because you deserve to be seen, supported, and treated with care and respect.
Here you’ll find tools, guides, and helpful links to support your journey. Whether you’re just getting started or have been with us for years, these resources can help you learn more, prepare for meetings, and feel more confident making decisions.
