“Recognize my disabilities. Emphasize my possibilities and focus on the positive.”
FSRC can help make this inspiration come true!
You’re not disabled by the disabilities you have, you are able by the abilities you have. It’s about trusting feelings and taking chances.
“Keeping Dane County families together by providing resources to support and care for their children with significant disabilities.”
We provide in-home and community support to families in Dane County (WI) who are raising children with disabilities at home. Services include Family Support and Community Inclusion.
FSRC has assembled the following catalog of helpful website links and downloadable documents for families of children with disabilities. It is our goal to continually expand this resource center and keep it current with the latest information, so please check back often and feel free to recommend additional resources via our online contact form.

TIME TO SAY GOODBYE
At the end of July, I will be retiring from my position as Executive Director of the Family Support and Resource Center. I love this organization and am proud that we have stayed true to our decades long mission of helping Dane County children and youth with disabilities live at home with their families as valued and participating members of the community. I am extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to be involved with such an extraordinary group of families, staff, Board members and community colleagues. I will miss the day to day involvement with FSRC, but look forward to pursuing personal interests, and spending time with my family, including my soon to be born third grandchild. Thank you all so much for allowing me to join in your journey these past 37 years. Heidi Rossiter
