- Abstract
Objectives: This project aimed to facilitate an integrated, inclusive community that created a sense of belonging within the North End apartment complex and Carmel by providing individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities the resources needed to live independently for the first time. Methods: I utilized a pre/post-survey, satisfaction survey, and Likert scale for outcome measures. The pre-survey determined future residents’ preferred interests and hobbies, which guided events I planned and businesses I contacted for partnerships. The post-survey determined residents’ likelihood of attending the events planned. Results: I created a resource binder based on results from the pre-survey, and several community members agreed to partner with North End by volunteering their time, resources, and talents to host or facilitate future events. Conclusion: Adults living with intellectual and developmental disabilities are an underserved population that has the potential to thrive living independently in their communities if provided with the necessary resources. Keywords: Community Integration, Advocacy, Independence, Inclusion
