University-Ky Christian County

The Human Development Institute (HDI) at the University of Kentucky focuses on improving the quality of life for individuals with disabilities and their families through research, education, and community training. With a commitment to early childhood education, employment, health, and universal design, HDI leads various initiatives and projects aimed at fostering leadership and self-advocacy among individuals with developmental disabilities.

Recently, HDI has recognized outstanding contributors in the field, such as Jacqui Kearns, who received the June Downing Award for her dedication to advancing awareness and support for disabilities. Under the new leadership of Dr. Mykal Leslie, the institute continues to offer a range of events and training sessions designed to enhance skills and promote collaboration within the community.
