Abilities Without Boundaries - Background Screening Portal
Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide opportunities in the community through employment and social experiences for people with developmental disabilities.
About Us
Since 1978, Abilities Without Boundaries has helped countless individuals with mental and physical disabilities lead a more productive and fulfilling life. What began with a few concerned parents has blossomed into an organization with a deep and profound respect for the individuals in our care. Formerly known as Cheshire Occupational & Career Opportunities (COCO), we are committed to providing a diverse and highly enriched experience with a focus on the individual needs of each of our clients.
We currently provide services for 68 clients in the areas of employment and day services. Our clients are employed in a wide scope of jobs in the communities we serve. We continue to look for new and innovative ideas that will allow our clients to share their talents with the greater community.
Our day services program focuses on instruction in the areas of daily living activities, gross and fine motor skills, social and emotional interactions. Our committed staff has an average longevity of nine years with the organization and they work to arrange a variety of activities to address each of these areas.
Abilities Without Boundaries is a strong advocate for the rights of people with developmental disabilities. For more than 30 years, we have been helping to make a difference. You too can become an advocate by spreading the word and supporting Abilities Without Boundaries.
