Disability impacts ALL of US. 26% of adults in the United States have some type of disability. Here at the Palm Beach Habilitation Center we have a belief that we have the responsibility to provide the tools, opportunities, and support needed for each individual to make their own unique and valuable contributions to society. We can't do this alone, it takes all of us to promote health, inclusion, and access to care for individuals with disabilities.
