NDCPD has provided exemplary services to ND communities throughout the years.
Many of these innovative approaches to disability services are readily available
for replications in other communities. If you would like more information about
our service capabilities, please contact our Community Service Coordinator

The North Dakota Center for Persons with Disabilities at Minot State University
provides direct services to people who have disabilities. The purpose of offering
these services is twofold:
- to offer services that demonstrate current best practice and fill an area
of need not being met by current community resources and
- to provide a practical setting for training new professionals to work in
the disability community.
Current Services
