Everyone deserves the opportunity to experience all that our community has to offer. Life Skills helps make this a reality for more than 1,500 people with developmental disabilities — our friends and neighbors with autism, cerebral palsy and Down syndrome.
We change lives by supporting those we serve as they live independently in homes of their own and find meaningful, sustainable work. People with developmental disabilities are able to make valuable contributions to society —
if only they are given the chance!
