Mission Statement
To help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to direct their lives with dignity, choice, authority, and responsibility.
Description
SEEC provides an array of services to help people who have significant disabilities live, work and thrive in their communities. Active community engagement gives people opportunities to showcase their abilities, develop new interests and talents, contribute to the workforce, and broaden their social networks. Full inclusion also helps change long-held stereotypes of people with disabilities from being "needy" to "contributing" - from being different to having a lot in common with their non-disabled peers.
SEEC’s services are driven by the unique desires of the men and women we support to:
- Live in a home of their choosing with whom they want to live
- Housemates Wanted!
- Benefit from paid employment that is valued and meaningful
- Pursue their personal development through continuous learning
- Thrive in communities of family and friends
