Adults with I/DD Deserve More Than Survival

Right now, many adults with developmental disabilities in Suffolk County are stuck in outdated systems—group homes that feel institutional, limited choices, and caregiving that's about compliance, not dignity. We're changing that by building real alternatives, one person at a time.

How Your Gift Makes an Impact

There’s a real waiting list for compassionate care—many adults with developmental disabilities are still waiting to be truly seen and served. Too often, established organizations lose sight of their founding mission: putting the individual first. At CCRI, we promise to keep the focus where it belongs—on every unique person who deserves dignity, belonging, and the right to flourish. When you choose to give, you’re reminding someone they are not forgotten, that their needs and dreams truly matter.

Your support—whether a donation, volunteering, or simply raising awareness—directly fuels care, connection, and hope. Every dollar, every act of kindness, brings us closer to opening doors and building real homes where individuals aren’t just a number, but a valued and celebrated member of our community. Thank you for joining us in making this vision real.
