MRI celebrates abilities as part of National Developmental Disability Awareness Month

MRI will be holding a variety of events to celebrate National Developmental Disability Awareness Month. MRI will also be holding an internal campaign for National Spread the Word to End the Word Month.

The following activities are also scheduled for Adult Day programming at MRI’s main building as part of National Developmental Disability Awareness Month:

Along with structured activities throughout the month, MRI Adult Services will be holding an “I am” Campaign, where individuals receiving MRI services can utilize their creativity in written or picture form to describe who “I am”.  The MRI “I am” Campaign reinforces that people should not be identified as their disabilities.  We encourage you to join us in celebrating abilities and encouraging self-advocacy.

“I am as thankful for this program as this gives my child anopportunity to learn teamwork, be with her peers and have fun. If not for this program, she would have been at home watching television and playing video games.”

—Parent of Camp EARTH student
