Mission Statement
DSC's mission is "to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities by providing services and supports which enable them to live, work, learn, and participate in their communities."

Individuals seeking services may experience functional or environmental challenges that require extra support to live more independently. These challenges may include assistance in adequate daily living skills, adequate work skills, recognized social behaviors, or the ability to access community transportation.
Direct and indirect services provided through choice include prevention, intervention/treatment, habilitation/rehabilitation, and support/maintenance to Champaign and Ford county residents.
