"The CDHD means independence – CDHD has helped me by providing me with assistive technology to be more independent and helped me learn leadersihp skills to run meetings and advocate in my life." -- Noll Garcia, Self-Advocate and CAC Vice Chair, Meridian.

The CDHD is guided by the principles that people with disabilities and their families have the right to:
▶️ access services that emphasize strengths and abilities
▶️ make decisions and define the quality of life they choose
▶️ be equal partners in research, program development, systems change processes, and building inclusive and interdependent communities.

We believe that people of all abilities can live, learn, work and play in their communities. Find out how we're making that possible: idahocdhd.org.
