Here's Why
Gompers Habilitation Center has been committed to serving adults and children with disabilities in our community since 1947. A 501(c) 3 non-profit organization, Gompers Habilitation Center has provided professionally organized and implemented programs of special education, Day Training for Adults, aquatic and rehabilitative therapy, oral health, vocational training, employment placement, and community education to thousands of adults and children with disabilities and their families for more than 60 years.
The majority of individuals who attend Gompers Habilitation Center were born with multiple disabilities such as Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Seizure Disorder, Cognitive Disabilities, Down Syndrome; conditions classified as developmental disabilities. Gompers serves over 300 adults and children in two facilities: Our main center at in Phoenix and our new Vocational Center in Glendale. Both buildings have been designed around the individual needs of our very special students and clients.
Gompers believes that every individual should be defined by their abilities - not their disabilities. It is this belief that guides Gompers to identify and maximize each person's individual potential. And when that is our primary focus, the possibilities become limitless.
