Mission & Focus Areas
The foundation’s mission is to promote the establishment of comprehensive healthcare for adults with developmental disabilities. Its stated values include an intersectional approach, the leadership and expertise of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, cultural humility in partnerships, and innovative approaches to disability healthcare.
Its published grant guidelines for public grant cycles included projects to improve healthcare delivery through practitioner education and training, better reimbursement, formal care coordination, advocacy for systemic change, supported decision-making in healthcare, digital health, social policy research, and efforts to identify and overcome barriers to high-quality healthcare. Those public cycles are no longer offered.
The grantees’ own missions illustrate the range of organizations that received support. The Institute for Exceptional Care describes its mission as transforming healthcare for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The Arc of the United States says it promotes and protects the human rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and supports their inclusion and participation in community life. The National Alliance to Advance Adolescent Health describes its mission as achieving systemic improvements in comprehensive healthcare and insurance coverage for adolescents.
