Institute on Community Integration

The Institute on Community Integration (ICI) was established in 1985 on the Twin Cities campus of the University of Minnesota. We are a federally designated University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDD - pronounced U Said), part of a national network of similar programs in major universities and teaching hospitals across the country. The Institute is home to 74 projects and 5 Affiliated Centers addressing disability issues across the lifespan (see Projects + Centers for a complete listing). In addition, it works in close collaboration with the University's Center for Early Education and Development, a Partner Center of the Institute.
