Narrative

The JF&CS Disability Resource Network (DRN) is a free information, referral, and consultation service.

Callers receive professional assistance in identifying resources related to education, vocational training, housing, finances, religious life, recreation, and other aspects of community living.

The DRN provides guidance in navigating the various systems of support available to an  individual with disabilities, and offers a compassionate place to consider steps for transition, support, and futures planning.
