She stated that she had the pleasure of working with several individuals from DDI and that they were some of the most positive and hardest working individuals she has ever met. She went on to say that she worked with an individual named Tommy and that he was great. She was very proud of him and was even aware that he worked at Walgreens. She said we do great work here and that this a great agency. ~Andre Pierre, Program Manager at Radio Avenue

As of August 2018, our youngest daughter graduated DDI. This was bittersweet for us. The time has come that we have to say goodbye to one of our favorite schools-DDI! Our children have moved onto elementary schools in the district. We are sure that they will do well because DDI prepared them fully for this new adventure! ~Michele Sullivan

I am thrilled to be working at DDI with young children and creating daily miracles in their lives. ~ Nicole Jablonski, Early Childhood Teacher

The level of customer service has been exemplary from the Driving Team including the Administrative and Clerical staff. I would recommend the Transportation Services offered by Mr. Brathwaite and the DDI Transportation Department without exception. ~Peter Michaelsen Asst. Supt – Finance & Operations Copiague UFSD

There are mountains that must be climbed, and canyons crossed. Our family has been so lucky to have so many wonderful people in our corner as we have faced this arduous journey. Tommy has been a student at DDI since he was four and a half years old. My husband and I entrust our son to the care of these wonderful professionals, and I have no doubt that they strive for excellence. Our son, Tommy, has autism. That has been very hard to say, but DDI has made our journey a little easier to travel. ~Elizabeth Klonowski
