The Community Support Network (CSN) provides resources, training, and information to support individuals with disabilities and their families to live a meaningful and dignified life.

Our partnerships with local, state and federal organizations support the development of collaborative initiatives with agencies to increase access to services that link individuals and their families to their community. The WIHD CSN is committed to continuing to develop and enhance programs and policies that reflect promising practices for continued opportunities in the field of disabilities.
