The Roeher Institute

Series includes records from Institute for Research and Development on Inclusion and Society (IRIS), which was formerly known as The Roeher Institute and the National Institute on Mental Retardation (NIMR). The records in this series were created during the periods in which IRIS was known as NIMR (created in 1970) and The Roeher Institute (the name changed from NIMR ca. 1983).

NIMR/The Roeher Institute/IRIS promote the equality, participation and self-determination of people with intellectual and other disabilities, by examining the causes of marginalization and by providing research, information and social development opportunities. As a part of this, they studied and presented policy alternatives for those with intellectual disabilities.

Records included in this series are correspondence and publications produced by NIMR, and documents on Program Analysis of Service Systems (PASS) and Jackie Maniago's involvement in using PASS for assessing service quality at institutions in Canada. The series also has publications published by The Roeher Institute, but the majority of the records cover the time period when the organization was known as NIMR. There are no records in the series for when the organization changed its name to IRIS.
