Why Disability Services Matter
The Developmental Disabilities Act, Medicaid, and inclusive education help ensure access to essential services and supports for people with disabilities. These programs promote independence, community living, and equal opportunities.
The Indiana Institute on Disability and Community has gathered stories from individuals and families across the state about the importance of these services in their daily lives.
