Narrative
The Series focuses on supporting families and individuals to live in their communities as naturally and typically as desired. Applications from families with children or adult family members of any age who are Department of Developmental Services eligible are encouraged.
The Family Leadership Series has a two fold purpose. The first is to offer information about “best practices” for people with disabilities.

Participants are required to attend all four of the sessions.
