Mission

Little City Foundation engages and supports individuals, families and communities to ensure that children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities can realize their unique potential to live safely, learn continuously, explore creatively and work productively.

About

Little City provides services to individuals with autism and other intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Little City Foundation is helping to create hope, change lives and challenge all limits for children and adults with autism and other intellectual and developmental disabilities. 

Whether it is our approach to residential care, vocational opportunities, athletics or art, our goal is to provide our residents and clients with opportunities that reflect their heart’s desire – a desire to live dignified and productive lives just like you and me.

That was the vision initiated more than 50 years ago by a courageous group of parents who started Little City. They wanted to remove the labels society used to devalue their children and champion the fundamental belief that every child and every adult has a right to live with a sense of significance and respect.

Today, those founding principles continue to guide the activities of our children and adults of all ages, allowing our residents to live life to their fullest potential.
