35 Years of Community Living

Through data and storytelling, we explore how community inclusion has shaped the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities across the country. It’s the story of how policy, data, and real lives intersect—and why community matters for all of us.

The 35 Years project is a collaboration between the National Residential Information Systems Project at the University of Minnesota, ThinkWork Access to Integrated Employment at UMass Boston, and the State of the States in I/DD at the University of Kansas.
