What’s your story?

Every person and family we support has their own unique story to tell. At LCBDD, we are honored to be a part of each and every journey.

Sharing these stories helps reflect the incredibly diverse community that we serve while helping those we support make connections and find belonging. 

Storytelling is a part of our culture at LCBDD and we hope you enjoy this always growing collection of profiles, stories and moments.

Do you have a success story you'd like to share? We want to hear it and celebrate with you!  Contact Anna Jeffries at 740-322-6911 or anna.jeffries@lcountydd.org to get started.
