When you or a family member has an intellectual/developmental disability, finding the right supports and navigating the various service systems can be overwhelming! We understand. Rest assured, LIFE Mower County is here to help! We provide supports throughout the lifespan for people of all ages and all ability levels.
When you contact our office, our first priority will be learning more about your needs. Then, we can discuss what services/supports might be the best options for you and your family.
