State of Missouri Disability Resource Portal

The Disability Portal is the State of Missouri’s disability resource website.

Here you can search by county and by disability type to find programs in Franklin County.  These include programs that help with a variety of disabilities, such as visual impairment, developmental disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, respiratory conditions and many others.

Information is also available regarding related concerns, such as service animals, housing, and assistive technology.
