Community Inclusion Service
Together is a Beautiful Place to Be
At ZINEniac, we believe that life is better when shared. Our Community Inclusion Services are designed to bring individuals with developmental disabilities together in safe, supportive, and joy-filled spaces—where friendships are made, creativity is explored, and community connections are built.
This service is more than just a group activity—it’s a chance for participants to feel a sense of belonging, learn new skills, and engage in the world around them with confidence.
What Is Community Inclusion?
Community Inclusion is a Medicaid-funded service under the DDD Supports Program and Community Care Program that allows individuals to participate in planned group-based activities that are enriching, social, and fun. At ZINEniac, these activities are always inclusive, interactive, and tailored to the interests and needs of our participants.
Whether we’re painting at our studio or attending a local event, our goal is to create moments of joy and connection—because everyone deserves to feel included.
