Empowering People. Strengthening Families. Building Community.
Every person deserves the opportunity to live a full, meaningful, and self-directed life.
Across Pierce County, we empower individuals with intellectual and developmental
disabilities—and the families who support them—by providing them with the resources,
education, connections, and advocacy needed to thrive. Whether you're seeking information,
navigating services, planning for the future, or building greater independence, you don't
have to do it alone.
From birth through adulthood, we provide trusted guidance, comprehensive resource information, educational workshops, homeownership assistance, employment resources, and connections to services and supports throughout Pierce County. We also empower self-advocates and their families to engage with policymakers, advocate for meaningful change, and make their voices heard.
More than a resource, we are a trusted community partner. We walk alongside individuals and families as they navigate life's opportunities and challenges, celebrate milestones, overcome barriers, and build brighter futures.
Together, we are building a stronger, more inclusive Pierce County—where every individual with intellectual and developmental disabilities is valued, supported, and empowered to reach their fullest potential.
