Countryside Association for People with Disabilities was
founded in 1954. Our mission is to advocate on behalf of persons with
disabilities and their families and support them in their efforts to live and
work successfully in their chosen community.
We envision a community where all people can reach their goals of
independence, employment and full participation in community life. Services are
offered with the goal of supporting the full development of each individual’s
potential and achievement of his/her life goals. Our services decrease the
number of individuals with disabilities who are unnecessarily institutionalized
and increase their autonomy, access to independence, paid employment
opportunities and participation in their community.
