Celebrating 39 years of changed lives

Everyone has the right to live in the community of their choice.

That’s why we’re here. Our services help with developing independence, learning new skills and living in the community of one’s choice.

We serve individuals with developmental disabilities, adults with physical disabilities, elders, very young children who are developmentally delayed or at risk, and children with behavioral health needs.

We are a nonprofit human service organization, and have served southern southeast Alaska for over 30 years.
