MOKA was founded in 1978 by a group of parents concerned about the future of their children diagnosed with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). They united with a primary goal of working towards greater physical and social inclusion for those with I/DD within our local communities. Today, we continue to champion that goal to support a need we all have; to be included and feel a sense of belonging.

Our vision for our community is that all people are included. An inclusive community recognizes every person for their unique strengths and abilities. In that same vein, we derive our tagline “See the Individual in Everyone,” and carry out our simple mission statement.

Making Choices: Every day choices you and I take for granted.
Building Relationships: Within the community.
Sharing Places: Places in the community you and I go every day.
Developing Skills: Functional skills needed to live successfully in our communities.
Enhancing Reputations: Gaining social acceptance from all members of the community.
Contributing Back: Giving something back to the community by working, volunteering, or helping others.
