About Abilities Without Boundaries

You can help create endless possibilities for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. These amazing, wonderful people want to work, contribute and participate. Some struggle with even the most basic functions of life. Others just need a bit of guidance, job training and the opportunity to show what they can do. Your tax-deductible contribution makes a very real difference in the lives of some very special people.

Since 1978, Abilities Without Boundaries (AWB) has helped disabled adults ages 18 – 80 lead better, happier and more productive lives. AWB offers disabled adults opportunities for group and individual employment in Cheshire and 10 surrounding towns. We provide job coaching, transportation and administrative support.
