Welcome to LifeMyWay, a statwide grassroots effort to celebrate people with developmental disabilities in Illinois. Our campaign was created in partnership with the Illinois Council on Developmental Disabilities, to elevate public understanding of the issues and people whose lives are touched by a developmental disability.

Advocates and family members, we are here to make your voices heard. By sharing your stories, LifeMyWay is a place where everyone can come together and be empowered. At the core of our campaign is one, simple fact: We are people -- just like you.
