Group of DDI staff

Community Partners

St. John\'s students and DDI staff
With sites and residences located throughout Long Island, DDI has had the opportunity to partner with many organizations that help drive our mission forward. 
 
Below is a list of our affiliations and employers of the people we serve.  They each help ensure that the children and adults with autism and other developmental disabilities supported at DDI experience personal growth and fulfillment. We accomplish this mission by developing person-centered plans that focus on the individual goals and interests of each person.
 
Whether you are interested in research, higher education, employment opportunities or have an idea or connection you want to share, we would love to hear from you. Join us in making a difference in people’s lives, and email us at [email protected] today.
