Exciting news!

March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, and throughout the month we’ll be highlighting and spotlighting the wonderful work happening across the Lawrence community, especially celebrating inclusive and competitive employment.

Do you know someone who deserves to be recognized?
Do you work for (or know) an employer committed to inclusive employment?

We would love to feature them!

To participate, please email macy@dsindiana.org.
We’ll be sharing spotlights on our social media all month long.
