Transitions can be tough—but a little preparation can go a long way.

Tip for a smoother start: In the weeks before school begins, try easing into the school-year routine—set consistent bedtimes, go over the morning schedule, and visit the school if possible. Familiar routines can make all the difference.

If your family is navigating developmental disability services, DPOK is here to help. We can walk you through eligibility for the IDD Waiver and connect you with local resources to support a strong start to the year.

Not sure where to begin? Reach out—we’re here to answer questions and support your journey.

Summer can bring a change of pace—but it’s still a great time to check in on goals, supports, and routines.

Use the slower season to revisit your Person-Centered Support Plan or explore new activities that align with your interests. Whether it’s trying a new skill, volunteering, or connecting with peers, small steps can lead to big confidence.

Your local CDDO (like DPOK) can help guide you toward resources, services, and opportunities that support your independence and well-being—all year round

We will be closed, July 4th!

This July 4th, we’re reminded that independence is personal—and it should be possible for everyone.

This holiday isn’t just about history—it’s about possibility.And we believe everyone deserves that.
