The CDCI CARES Team serves the entire state of Vermont, with our main office located at the University of Vermont's Center on Disability and Community Inclusion (CDCI).

"The team has been part of my child's life for years, and we appreciate everything they have done to support us along this journey! We feel so very lucky to have had the honor of working with them."
