Community Participation for Adults with Intellectual or Developmental Disability

We are doing a study to learn about how and where adults with disabilities participate in their community. This study involves answering questions about things you do in your community or things that make it hard to participate in your community. We will ask you to wear a Tracki® GPS device for two weeks, which will track where you go. You will also fill out a Travel Diary each day to explain why you went to each place.
