The values we teach are absolutely essential for the realization of a life of independence, promise and hope; and the realization of the goals of REAL FRIENDS, REAL HOMES and REAL WORK.

Our mission is to assist in the empowerment and development of fully responsible, contributing members of the community, persons with developmental disabilities and all children at risk.

By building a wide variety of community supports, we help build success.

"An Agency Without Walls"

    NO ONE IS DISPOSABLE.
                    EVERY LIFE HAS VALUE AND WORTH.

In recognition of the shared humanity of persons with developmental disabilities and all children at risk, i.e... the need to feel that we belong; the need to feel that we are capable of giving and receiving love; the need to feel that we are in on things; and the need to feel that our lives have value and purpose; Footings, Inc. has as its mission to assist in the empowerment and the development of fully responsible, contributing members in their home community, persons with developmental disabilities and all children at risk. We will accomplish this through the provision of integrated, community based Programs and Services for the consumers and their families. The Programs and Services will seek to develop skills and provide a wide variety of opportunities in the areas of independence, self-expression, choice making, and self-representation. Skills in these areas and the opportunity to use them are absolutely essential and basic to full citizenship and the realization of the goals of real home, real friends, and real work.

Footings is a not-for-profit organization that specializes in providing non-traditional programs and services to children, teens, and young adults with special needs and all children at risk. All programs are located in buildings occupied and utilized by the general population enhancing our ability to foster the development of natural community supports; opening doors to lives of Independence AND Entrepreneurship, NOT reliance on social services; lives of Promise and Hope, NOT despair and neglect. Together...

WE BUILD COMMUNITY SUPPORTS
