Community-based caregiving is a vital mode of support for older adults with developmental disabilities. This insightful and uplifting program examines how, within Hispanic, African-American, and Asian-American cultural contexts, the needs of high-functioning members of this population are being met through the empowering assistance of their families and through healthcare and employment programs that promote self-determination.

The importance of service providers who share their clients' respective cultures and, where necessary, speak Asian languages or Spanish is underscored.
