Yellow Minds is a caring program designed to help adults with developmental disabilities grow in independence, discover their voice, and build skills that open doors to meaningful opportunities. Through hands-on support and engaging community experiences, participants gain confidence, make connections, and take steps toward living more independent and meaningful lives.
Our mission is to foster independence, confidence, and inclusion by providing meaningful support for participants and their families. Each participant will be paired with a dedicated Life Guide (support worker) in a ratio of 1 Life Guide per 3 participants, ensuring individualized attention and growth.
