AbilityPath

Gatepath and Abilities United have a new name – AbilityPath – that more effectively conveys our mission of acceptance, respect, and inclusion! Learn more at AbilityPath.org/FAQ.

Our mission to accept, respect, and include people of all abilities extends to the identities and backgrounds of every member of our community. AbilityPath disrupts all forms of discrimination, injustice, and oppression. We oppose violence and discrimination against all members in our community, particularly BIPOC and LGBTQ+ people. We are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. In solidarity with these core values, we recognize that we have work to do. We are creating a culture where community members can thrive as their authentic self. We are a stronger community when everyone is included.

AbilityPath is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving children, youth and adults with special needs and developmental disabilities and their families in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. Our mission is to empower people with special needs to achieve their full potential through innovative, inclusive programs and community partnerships. AbilityPath has been an established local nonprofit for more than 100 years and has experienced substantial growth over the last several years. The organization continues to partner with various local nonprofits, businesses, government agencies and third party providers to bring the best quality of service to those receiving services, and their families. Together, we are working to create a world where people of all abilities are fully accepted, respect and included in all aspects of life – in the classroom, the workplace and in our communities.
