$150,000 Goal

Shining Stars ISS was created to serve adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in North Texas who are too often left without meaningful daytime support options. Across our region, many programs are limited in hours, capacity, or are designed primarily for higher-functioning individuals—leaving families with few choices and long waitlists.

We believe ability level should never determine access to opportunity.

Our program provides a structured, supportive, and engaging environment where participants can build essential life skills, strengthen independence, and experience genuine inclusion in their community. Through hands-on learning, social activities, and community outings, individuals are supported at their own pace in areas such as personal care, communication, money skills, cooking, and daily living routines.

At Shining Stars, every participant is valued for who they are—not defined by limitations.

With your support, we are building more than a program. We are building a safe, accessible space where adults with disabilities can continue to grow, connect with others, and experience meaningful days filled with purpose and dignity.
