How to Help
Vision for Equality began with a conviction that all individuals with Intellectual Disabilities and Autism and their families should become empowered and supported in their life in the community.
We have come a long way in our 25 years as a leading family support organization rooted in our belief: By Families, For Families.
Yet there is still much work to be done, as more than 12,700 individuals continue to wait for Home and Community Based Services in Pennsylvania. We continue to strive for a day when all will have the services they need.
Today families need our help more than ever before. By supporting Vision for Equality, you will sustain us in continuing to help individuals and families in a variety of ways such as:
- Providing advocacy through guidance, technical assistance, and referrals to resources
- Offering statewide trainings on topics such as Waivers, Supporting Families throughout the Lifespan, Abuse, Community Living, Safety in the Community and Estate Planning
- Mentoring
- Surveying individuals to assess their satisfaction with their supports and quality of life
- Providing support groups for parents across the city of Philadelphia
- Working towards impactful system change by educating legislatures about the needs of our families
Please consider helping us continue our mission through giving a donation, sponsorship, or volunteering. With your assistance, you are shifting the paradigm for individuals with disabilities and their families, making that everyday life a reality for ALL. Please join us today as a Community Partner. Even the smallest gift can have a lasting impact for years to come and would help us to strengthen our community by empowering families, working together.
