Road to Responsibility Honored by United Way of Greater Plymouth County

MARSHFIELD, MA, ISSUED JULY 7, 2026… Road to Responsibility (RTR; http://roadtoresponsibility.org), one of the region’s largest and most successful nonprofit organizations supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, has been honored by the United Way of Greater Plymouth County for its extraordinary community service and outstanding campaign contributions.

RTR received the recognition during the United Way of Greater Plymouth County’s recent 104th Annual Meeting & Awards Celebration held at Bridgewater State University, where local civic and business leaders, partners, and nonprofit organizations were celebrated for their impact, compassion, and service.

The award highlights RTR dedication “to inspire meaningful change and strengthen the lives” of those it serves. The organization was also recognized for its contributions to the United Way’s annual campaign and proudly served as a supporting sponsor of this year’s Annual Meeting and Awards Celebration luncheon.

RTR maintains a long-standing relationship with the United Way of Plymouth County, working together to expand community supports and advance shared goals of inclusion, opportunity, and improved quality of life for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

“Being honored by the United Way of Greater Plymouth County affirms the impact of our work and the power of collaboration,” said RTR President and CEO Christopher T. White Ed.D. “We are grateful for their partnership and shared commitment to strengthening lives and communities.”

Celebrating more than 38 years of making lives better, Road to Responsibility, Inc. (RTR) was established in 1988 with the overarching belief that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities deserve to have full, rich, and rewarding lives in the community, and therefore works to provide the means, the opportunity, and the support necessary to allow citizens with disabilities to take their place as productive members of the community. RTR offers residential, work/employment, day habilitation and other day supports to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. RTR supports individuals with very diverse needs, including those with significant challenges who would otherwise go unserved if not for RTR. It succeeds where other organizations often fail, through the use of an integrated clinical behavioral approach. This model has proven successful and yielded positive results for the organization and the individuals served.

Road to Responsibility offers services to almost all the towns and communities throughout the South Shore and South Coast of Massachusetts, operates 52 residences as well as co-operative and supportive living apartments, and manages nine day-service locations that focus on education, employment, and community enrichment.
