Our Mission:

Our mission is to empower, respect, and serve each child and adult

while promoting the health and well-being of each individual, their families, and our community.

Supporting and empowering people with developmental disabilities to live the lives they choose.

North Bay Regional Center (NBRC), one of 21 regional centers located throughout California, is a private non-profit (501(c)3), started as a grass roots movement to assist persons with intellectual disabilities — and their families — in identifying and developing services and programs within their communities that help them lead more independent lives. The regional centers were established by the Lanterman Act (California Welfare & Institutions Code §4500 et seq.) and are regulated by Title 17 of California’s Government Code. Regional centers serve as the point of entry into the State’s developmental services delivery system, providing life-long services and supports to individuals with developmental disabilities and their families.

North Bay Regional Center was incorporated in 1972 and proudly serves the needs 13,000 children and adults with developmental disabilities in the linguistically and culturally diverse communities of Napa, Solano and Sonoma counties. NBRC is guided by a dedicated Board of Directors and supported by approximately 400 staff and 1,500+ service providers. Our mission is to empower, respect and serve each child and adult with or with the potential for a developmental disability, while promoting the health and well-being of each individual, their families, and our community.
