Developmental and Intellectual Differences

Individuals differ in the types of support needed to perform daily living activities, express emotions, communicate their choices, and interact with the world. Much like everyone else, those with developmental and intellectual differences have a basic desire for friendship, social interaction, and leisure activities.
