Logo of the Project Reconciling the Past and Changing the Future

The goal of this project is to build the capacity of young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who have mental health service experiences (IDD-MH), their families, and researchers to partner together in research.

To learn more about how we began to reconcile past harms and change the way research is conducted with persons with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities and mental health service experiences (IDD-MH) and their families, visit the project website.

This project is a collaboration of the University of Florida, Georgetown University National Center for Cultural Competence (NCCC), and the Center for START Services (CSS) at the University of New Hampshire, Institute on Disability.
