Connecting Point of Park Cities
Focus: adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities
Connecting Point of Park Cities (CPPC) provides an inclusive day program for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) by fostering independence through impactful educational, social, recreational, and vocational initiatives.
CPPC is unique in that we serve individuals of all abilities, from those wholly dependent to others holding part-time jobs. Centrally located in University Park, CPPC serves individuals from multiple zip codes throughout Dallas, Collin, and Denton counties.
For each teammate (program participant) we serve, there are family members who also benefit. By caring for their loved ones, families have time to work, help aging parents or grandchildren, and focus on their own well-being. CPPC assists families in connecting to the resources required to keep their teammates active in the community.
Our staff is dedicated to making each day at CPPC worthwhile and rewarding for our teammates.
