Building Belonging: A Place for Everyone
For generations, people have found connection, purpose, and a sense of belonging with Prescott. What started as a small initiative, created by parents 60 years ago, has grown into a thriving community—one that evolves, adapts, and expands to meet the needs of the people we serve.
Through the years, we’ve listened, learned, and built opportunities alongside those who walk through our doors.
Belonging isn’t just about being present – it’s about being seen
Now, we’re building something even bigger. A space that will grow with our participants, where opportunities expand, and where no one is left behind.
Located in the heart of the city, our new building will be a place where people with disabilities are not hidden away but fully visible—working, socializing, leading, and shaping the world around them.
This is your moment to make a lasting difference
