Rejecting the one-size-fits-all mentality, we're dedicated to the person-centered philosophy. Every program is a reflection of unique interests and needs.
OUR
VISION
DANI will be a dynamic, proactive, accessible, innovative, and highly collaborative organization that serves adults with developmental disabilities throughout their lifetime ensuring that they each reach their full potential.
OUR
MISSION
DANI’s mission is to deliver a full continuum of person-centred services - including social, recreational, employment training, social enterprises and residential - to adults with developmental disabilities, incorporating Jewish practices and traditions; and integrating into the community, and its service networks.
DANI is a canvas where individuals with developmental disabilities are the artists of their own lives. We’re here to support, not steer, their journey towards their ambitions.
