About Ability Beyond
Ability Beyond, a 501(c) (3), not for profit organization, was founded in 1953 by a group of parents who wanted a better life for their children with disabilities. Today we offer one of the most comprehensive systems of community-based support for people with disabilities in the Northeast, helping more than 2,400 people across two states to overcome a variety of challenges. It is through our innovative community job training and placement, supported living, and recreational and educational opportunities that we are able to help the individuals we serve to live full and rewarding lives. Ability Beyond employs over 1,100 dedicated staff, engages over 500 volunteers and is governed by a voluntaryBoard of Directors and Trustees.
At Ability Beyond we strive to provide the highest quality of services and as we grow and evolve, we remain focused on the individual. We will ensure that every person has the opportunity to live, work and be a part of their community, with a focus on the following initiatives:
A Place to Call Home - we are building new homes and renovating our existing homes to ensure that the people we serve now, and those who will need us in the future, can live in an environment that is best suited to meet their individual needs.
Fostering Independence through Work - we are growing our job training and employment services to help more people achieve the highest level of independence that is possible.
Aging with Dignity - we are pioneering innovations in care for the aging population so that people with disabilities can be treated with dignity and respect in an environment that is best suited for their unique needs, through the end of their lives.
