This Disability Pride Month, we want to recognize one of our clients, Opportunities for Inclusion in Waltham.
Since 1956, Opportunities for Inclusion (formerly GWArc) has served individuals with intellectual, developmental, and physical disabilities, along with frail elders and their families. Their programs span day habilitation, employment and community-based day services, residential services, shared living, adult family care, and recreation, all built around a person-centered approach that stays sensitive to the level of support each individual needs to thrive.
Disability Pride Month is about recognizing disability as a natural part of human diversity and rejecting the idea that people have to fit a mold to belong. That reflects what Opportunities for Inclusion has worked toward for nearly 70 years: independence, inclusion, and self-advocacy for the people they serve.
As a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit and an affiliated chapter of The Arc and The Arc of Massachusetts, Opportunities for Inclusion continues that work today. We are proud to support their mission behind the scenes. To learn more or get involved, visit oppsforinclusion.org.
