Who We Are:​

Yolo County Regional Center consumers, their families, staff, and allies

​

What We Do:

​

We collaborate with each other and with local government agencies in planning an inclusive, safe and healthy future for people with Developmental Disabilities ("DD") and/or Intellectual Disability ("ID") who call Yolo County their home.

Today, self-advocates, parents and local government work together to construct living arrangements, and to make necessary accommodations to traditional public resources;

​

3. participate in meetings of such agencies as the Yolo County Aging and Adult Services Commission of Yolo County, and others;

​

4. use social media and other means to spread awareness about and acceptance of people with Intellectual Disability, and Developmental Disabilities including Autism, ADHD, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome and others.
