Many of us take for granted the ease with which we complete our basic daily activities, but for individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities these activities are difficult or even impossible without assistive technologies and equipment. Seven Hills Rhode Island is grateful to the Rhode Island Foundation for their $5,000 grant to support the basic needs of individuals in our Adult Day Habilitation and Residential Support programs. Thank you for this basic-needs funding that allows the individuals in our programs to live as independently as possible, and purse the meaningful lives they choose.
