About Gompers Habilitation Center
Since 1947...
Gompers Habilitation Center has existed exclusively to serve individuals with disabilities from all over Maricopa County. From our early days on 7th Street to our newly expanded Vocational Center on Bethany Home Road, Gompers has seen the needs of those living with disabilities change and we have worked diligently to evolve and grow along with those ever-changing needs.
For more than 60 years, Gompers has committed itself to providing exceptional programs of education and we fully intend to continue that work for another 60 years. At Gompers Habilitation Center it's about empowerment, independence and advocacy as we believe everyone born unto this earth deserves every opportunity to discover who they are and realize their maximum individual potential. At Gompers, we're here to support them in that pursuit.
"...education is not an arbitrary thing that automatically ends with a certain year of life, but that it must continue throughout life if the individual is really to live and make progress."
Samuel Gompers (1850-1924)
