Since its inception in 1998, Hands of Heartland has been dedicated to supporting people with developmental disabilities. It is our mission to do this with integrity, transparency, and — above all — respect.
We believe in empowering and enriching the lives of people with IDD through skill enhancement, community integration, advocacy, and the support needed to pursue their own dreams. This philosophy has become the agency’s top priority: ensuring that our services are driven by and created for the person.
We are equipped to support people with varying levels of mental, physical, and behavioral needs. Our team members are compassionate, highly trained, and ready to help lift individuals to new heights in whichever ways they need.
At Hands of Heartland, we operate on the idea that people with developmental disabilities can do just about anything they put their minds to and that they deserve a safe, supportive, and creative community in which to explore and achieve their aspirations.

It is our promise to enable people with developmental disabilities to experience life, employment, and independence within the community. In order to deliver on this promise in a way that honors people’s rights and needs, our top priority is the hiring of compassionate team members.
Team members of Hands of Heartland will assist the people we serve through choices, dignity, and teachings. Through these mechanisms, we will empower the people we serve as they embark on their journeys in independence.
Hands of Heartland believes that people with developmental disabilities are people first. We believe that all persons have the right to live, be employed, learn, grow within their surroundings, and interact within the community.
Our belief in the Family Net is strong, and we encourage family members to be involved in every aspect of the delivery of our services.
We believe that the quality of our team members is of the utmost importance — hiring only the most motivated and knowledgeable people in order to uphold creativity, innovation, and determination in the delivery of our services.
We at Hands of Heartland will always place the person before the program — striving daily to embody the message our name states.
