About RSI
Our History
In Chapel Hill, North Carolina, a group of dedicated
parents, community leaders, and UNC professionals joined forces
with one mission – to create quality services for people with
developmental disabilities. Founded in 1974, Residential
Services, Inc. was the result of this effort.
RSI was one of the first organizations in North Carolina to
provide community-based residential services and today carries
on the tradition of providing a wide array of service options to
over 100 people with developmental disabilities.
Our Mission
RSI provides living options and related supports to people with
developmental disabilities of all ages. RSI promotes quality of
life by maximizing self-determination, development of
independent living skills, community involvement, meaningful
social roles, and socially responsible behavior.
Our Vision
Individuals with developmental disabilities have the services
and supports they choose in order to live lives characterized by
happiness, dignity, health, and the highest possible degree of
social responsibility and productivity.
