Woodward Resource Center, Woodward, IA
WRC serves and supports persons with mental retardation and other disabilities throughout the State of Iowa. WRC also provides consultation and other supports to families and others who provide services and supports for people with disabilities.
Individual Support Systems, Inc., Topeka, KS
Individual Support Systems (ISS) was formed in 1995 by Kathy and Dale Stiffler, former top-level managers at the Kansas Neurological Institute, as a better way to provide services to Kansans with developmental disabilities than what was available in state institutions. ISS is incorporated in the State of Kansas and is licensed by the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services (SRS). ISS is one of several affiliate agencies of the Topeka Association of Retarded Citizens (TARC). Under Kansas law, TARC, a Community Developmental Disability Organization (CDDO) is one of several agencies by which developmentally disabled Kansans enter the state system. ISS contracts with TARC to provide services.
The Alliance for Kansans with Developmental Disabilities
The Alliance mission is to work together to empower children and adults who have developmental disabilities to lead personally fulfilling lives in the community through maximization of Kansas resources.
