Narrative

For more than 40 years, Multicultural Community Services of the Pioneer Valley, Inc. (MCS) has been an innovator in the provision of Family Support services. We continue to be a statewide leader in the delivery of these services. MCS is primarily funded by the Massachusetts Department of Developmental Services (DDS). We currently serves more than 3000 people with intellectual disabilities (ID) and Autism throughout western Massachusetts.

As our name implies, MCS is committed to providing responsive support to people from diverse cultural, ethnic, and linguistic backgrounds. Our Family Support services are crafted with the firm belief that people with disabilities (PwD) are best supported by being home with their families. We consider families to be the experts in caring for their family member with a disability.  We try to work alongside people with disabilities and their families. We help create and ensure a quality of life filled with happiness and opportunity – an enviable life!
