ABOUT US
IN: SAN FRANCISCO is A SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCY THAT RESPECTFULLY ASSISTS PERSONS WITH INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES IN VARIOUS ASPECTS OF LIFE.
Now in our SEVENTH year, we will continue to evolve and grow to keep up with the changing needs of our participants. By design, we will always be a work in progress and will never lose track of why we are here.. SOCIETY HAS COME A LONG WAY BUT THERE IS STILL A LOT OF WORK TO DO FOR AND WITH THE IDD COMMUNITY.
We are pleased to announce that we are now rendering services in Contra Costa County. Our new addition is located in Pittsburg. Further information can be found in the “contact us” section.
In addition to our expansion, we will soon be rolling out a more robust employment department AND AN APP THAT WILL GIVE PARTICIPANTS EVEN MORE CONTROL OVER THEIR SERVICES.
Thank to everyone who has been so supportive over the past 7 years. IT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.
OUR MISSION IS TO OFFER SUPPORT TO PERSONS WITH INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AND RENDER SERVICES UNOBTRUSIVELY WITH THE RESPECT THAT IS DESERVED
WE ARE FREQUENTLY ASKED ABOUT OUR NAME…
WE WANTED OUR NAME TO REPRESENT OUR GOALS FOR THE AGENCY AND WHAT WE WOULD OFFER OUR PARTICIPANTS. WE WANTED OUR NAME TO BE FUN, DIGNIFIED AND NOT CONDESCENDING TO THIS COMMUNITY WE HOLD IN SUCH HIGH REGARD.
