Documentary Film Screening: “Of the Community” 

This film follows the lives of eight individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in their journey to becoming of their community, not just in it. It also warns service providers of unconscious institutional mindsets that can threaten good service intentions. Attendees can expect to…

  • Gain a refreshed and energized perspective on the meaning of true community inclusion.
  • See how an elevated role-perception amongst direct support professionals is a key driver to making dreams a reality for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families!

This screening will be held on Tuesday, November 9, 2021 from 1:00 pm–1:45 pm ET.
