Across our community, over 11,000 children and youth with special needs receive the help that they need to realize goals important to them. It could be overcoming a stutter, strengthening muscles to take that first step or learning the social skills to make a friend—together, we make these firsts possible. With over 60 years of experience, KidsAbility helps children and youth with special needs and their families to achieve goals important to them at home, at school and in the community. Our goal is to get the right support to the right child at the right time and donations help to make that possible.

Established in 1957, KidsAbility is an accredited, charitable organization governed by an elected board of directors, operated by a professional staff of over 230, and assisted by over 900 volunteers. We are committed to partnerships with individuals and agencies to enhance the services available to children and youth with special needs in our community.

Brighter futures happen here!
