About Us

Sharing Our Strengths (SOS) is a division of the Missouri Developmental Disability Resource Center (MODDRC). The MODDRC is a network of support options, providing information, peer support, and volunteer opportunities, so that individuals with developmental disabilities and their families are well informed, hopeful, connected within their communities, and are aware that they are not alone in their experience with disability.

SOS serves as Missouri's parent to parent/peer support provider. Any SOS or MODDRC service can be accessed at any time by individuals, families, or professionals, and as often as needed.

The MODDRC/SOS are programs of:

• Missouri Planning Council for Developmental Disabilities
• UMKC-Institute for Human Development, University Center for Excellence
