Who We Serve

This includes people with intellectual, developmental, physical, or mental health challenges, and/or people who have been seriously impacted by the experience of generational poverty, adverse childhood experiences, drug addiction, brain injury, abuse, neglect, war, and more.
Our Vision
Our vision is to continually improve services to respond to the changing needs of people who have disabilities and their families.
