Individuals
Disabled and neurodivergent people themselves.
About
Local disability support, organized around real life.
A Southeast Michigan resource index for individuals and the people around them — across diagnoses, systems, and life stages.
Why it exists
One place instead of scattered systems.
Disability information is often split across agencies, schools, clinics, nonprofits, public programs, and word-of-mouth networks. The Support Index brings those starting points into one searchable, source-reviewed regional directory.
Who it serves
The person — and the people around them.
Families & caregivers
Parents, guardians, caregivers and caretakers.
Support networks
Siblings, partners, friends, neighbors and advocates.
Professionals
Educators, providers and community professionals.

Disability does not end after childhood.

Our approach
Useful first. Transparent always.
Organized for navigation
Filter by location, life stage, service, provider type and other practical details.
Sources on every profile
Published listings display source-review information and a review date.
Evidence in context
Directory inclusion is separated from endorsement and from evidence for a specific intervention.
Independent project
Independent, informational, and transparent about what we are.
The Support Index is an independent public resource project — not a medical provider, law firm, government agency, nonprofit organization, or endorsement service. Listings are informational.
