Our History
Developing Potential, Inc. is a nationally accredited, not-for-profit organization. We are dedicated to providing quality services and supports to adults with developmental disabilities so they might lead the most self-directed and fulfilling life possible. DPI began serving the community in 1993 with eight customers at our downtown Kansas City site. Within the next five years, that number grew to 50. In March 2002, to meet the growing need for programs for adults with disabilities, DPI opened a second site in the under-served Kansas City suburb of Independence, Missouri.
Our Mission
To provide quality day habilitation services to adults with developmental disabilities and support those individuals to reach their potential and achieve a dignified, adult lifestyle.
