Vision: Communities where individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities have no unique barriers to achieving a life of quality. Mission: Through our kinship with JCDS, we provide basic needs, affordable housing, and life enhancing opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.  At its heart, Friends of JCDS, Inc. is about helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) achieve success in the community, whether it’s providing accessible and affordable housing or helping with basic needs. For the last 21 years we have been purchasing and remodeling homes to make them accessible; removing barriers for wheelchairs, installing ramps, widening doorways and hallways and ensuring that the houses remain affordable for individuals to rent. Individuals served receive their residential services from Johnson County Developmental Supports.Through our partnership with the county agency, individuals have the security knowing that that their rent will remain well below market rates and within affordable housing guidelines all the while receiving solid services from Johnson County Developmental Supports to ensure successful community living. Along with our affordable housing program, we also offer a special assistance program that provides additional assistance with basic needs. Individuals that are served by JCDS can apply for financial aid to pay for dental bills, clothing, food, utilities or other essentials. The fund also offers assistance with quality of life issues such as gym memberships, therapies or activities. We often help with obtaining donations for tickets to local sporting activities and community activities, as well as hosting an annual picnic and Halloween Boo Bash.We are a private non-profit organization.

Friends supports innovative, solutions-oriented programs that help our vulnerable neighbors experiencing homelessness move from the streets/shelters into safe, stable housing and connect to the supports and opportunities they need to rebuild their lives.

The final transition steps out of homelessness are often the most crucial, and we help make them happen. Like a Parent/Teachers Organization or “Friends of” group, Friends bridges the gap between public sector funding and the needs of the homeless by providing a vehicle for individuals, businesses, foundations and charitable organizations to be a part of the solution to homelessness.
