The Illinois Council on Developmental Disabilities works to promote the independence, productivity, integration, and inclusion of those with disabilities into the community, ensuring that those individuals with developmental disabilities have the same opportunities as others in the community. Their mission is to ensure that people with developmental disabilities participate and are included in everyday life and can choose the services and supports that best fit their needs. To accomplish this, ICDD invests in people and organizations serving people with disabilities throughout the State of Illinois.

ICDD’s online library of resources is free and includes materials on employment, assistive technology, specific disabilities, law, parenting, inclusion, and more. Their DSP Toolkit helps individuals and families find, choose, and keep great DSPs!
