The Abby Lou Foundation Information

Adults with intellectual disabilities are an often-overlooked demographic in our country. Americans are typically aware of children or adolescents with intellectual disabilities and the programs and aid available to them, but not many people are aware of what becomes of them once they reach the age of majority. This leaves this group of adults at the mercy of others. All too often, that means they can be left in less-than-ideal conditions and unaware of all of the options available to them. Many adults with intellectual disabilities are more than capable of living productive, purpose-filled lives and all they need is the opportunity to do so.
