Founded in 1953, Ability Connection is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that serves more than 1,000 Texans
with all types of intellectual or other developmental disabilities.
Our members are individuals with skills, passions, interests, humor, creativity, dignity, and determination. Our experienced, dedicated employees and volunteers work hard to empower them to live their best lives possible by removing barriers that inhibit independence and autonomy.
Today, one in five people have a disability – which is why our organization and services are so critical.

“Our son comes with his own unique challenges, and Ability Connection handles everything with professionalism and care. The management is great, the direct care staff is wonderful, the nurses are easy to work with and responsive, and we rest a lot easier these days knowing our son is being taken care of. So thank you Ability Connection for all that you are and all that you do.”
