Access of the Red River Valley is a Moorhead, Minnesota-based organization in the field of individual and family services. Founded in 1984 by concerned parents, it emerged from a grass-roots effort to keep children with disabilities out of institutional care and to support them in private homes and community settings. Its approach centers on helping people with disabilities live independently with daily living skills support and participate in community life, guided by values such as informed choice, risk-taking, and future planning. The organization serves individuals with disabilities seeking community-based supports rather than placement in institutions, positioning itself within the broader social services landscape as a provider focused on dignified, independent living. Based in the Red River Valley region, it operates with a small to mid-sized staff and aims to have a lifetime impact through caring, trained personnel.
