Toward Maximum Independence (TMI).

An estimated 1 in 6 people are born with a developmental disability. Yet, just like you, they are also born with hopes, dreams and the drive to contribute to society. Toward Maximum Independence (TMI) is a nonprofit organization that has been dedicated to transforming the lives of children and adults with developmental disabilities since 1981 and the deaf and hard of hearing since 2000.

We have successfully assisted clients to gain meaningful employment in integrated settings, live in a home of their own with individualized supports, provide families with in-home supports for children with challenging behaviors and provide children the opportunity to live in a safe and licensed foster home. The individuals we are privileged to serve deserve nothing less than love, acceptance and the opportunity to reach their full potential in life.

The three cornerstones of a strong foundation are: living as independently as possible, having the opportunity for real work for real pay, and a safe, caring home. With the support of community members like you, we are honored to be able to help lay that foundation for hundreds of children and adults with developmental disabilities and the deaf and hard of hearing throughout San Diego, Riverside and Imperial Counties.
