Developmental Education

A Developmental Educator (DE) is an allied health professional who supports people of all ages living with disability. They teach important life skills, set goals, and ensure physical and emotional well-being. DEs assess your needs and create positive plans to support you in various ways, such as improving your senses, independence, social skills, and more. They focus on what's best for you, your loved ones, and the things that matter to you.
