Sizzle Video Shows Summit DD’s Personality

Summit DD launched its new brand and website this year. Our brand is a reflection of who we are. It was developed by those who know us best: individuals we support, families, staff, and the community. We don’t want to stop there. We want to give those who don’t yet know us a peek at who we are. And what better way to show our personality than through video?

For those who already know us, you’ll see the amazing people who inspire us, the caring staff who live the Summit DD mission, and the innovative supports that keep us moving forward. To those who don’t know us yet, we invite you to check out this video. You’ll see that we’re the community resource connecting families and individuals with developmental disabilities to the right supports to live their dreams.  We think you’ll agree, Summit DD is more than meets the eye and we’re just getting started!
