DSC's mission is "DSC supports people in living a rich and meaningful life." The history of DSC started with humble beginnings but given unwavering passion and effective leadership the organization has seen tremendous growth since its beginnings. DSC’s past reaches back to 1960 when a devoted a group of citizens and an enthusiastic community wanted to offer people with disabilities an opportunity to become more involved in and contribute to their community. During that time, The Champaign County Rehabilitation Center, Happy Day School, Mayor’s Action for Retarded Children, and Togetherness Club were four separate programs with unique origins but were destined to become a unified and comprehensive program of services, eventually becoming DSC.
