Please join North Bay Regional Center (NBRC) at our Board of Director’s meeting, on March 6, 2024 at 6 p.m. for a presentation on the National Core Indicator (NCI) Survey.  These surveys give individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their families the opportunity to voluntarily and confidentially participate in surveys to share their experiences on access to and use of regional center and community services.

  • Survey responses help California learn how it is doing compared to other states.
  • Survey responses help the regional centers see what they are doing well and what they can improve on.
