PHILOSOPHY
The Adams County Board of Developmental Disabilities (ACBDD) believes that all
persons with developmental disabilities have a right to be fully included in the
community in which they live. Persons with disabilities belong in all facets of
the community in which they choose to participate. It is the Board's belief that
each enrollee should be assisted to develop physically, emotionally, socially,
and mentally to his/her fullest potential. This will enable each person to take
his or her rightful place in the community.
The services will be provided in such a way as to protect the rights, enhance
the dignity, and promote the growth of each person served by the Board.
The integration of people with developmental disabilities into their communities
is the cornerstone and mission of the Board's philosophy. The Board has a vision
that each person with a disability has an opportunity to share in the same
quality of life that is available for others in their community. The community
is not only a place to live, work, and play, it is a sense of belonging among
all people.
