Overview
 
EDC’s focus is providing individuals with developmental disabilities and/or mental retardation the opportunity to learn skills needed to reach their highest level of independence while insuring they experience the same privileges and opportunities enjoyed by all members of our society.
Our philosophy is to provide individuals services that address their specific needs within their own communities promoting within them a positive learning experience as classified by the Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities (www.omr.state.ny.us). Through this person-centered approach, EDC encourages our program participants to strive to reach their potential within familiar environments.
