Abilities Network is a mid-sized nonprofit based in Towson, Maryland, founded in 1964 by physicians and parents. As a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization, it supports children, adults, families, and seniors in Maryland to achieve personal goals through customized, community-based assistance, with a focus on individuals who face disability, environmental barriers, or limited access to resources. The organization emphasizes one-on-one engagement in homes, workplaces, and communities. Key initiatives include Project Act, which provides training for families, child care providers, teachers, and community members to promote inclusion and educational success. The Move Management program and a monthly Speaker Series offer resources to ease transitions for seniors. Since 1999, Healthy Families Baltimore County has connected families to community information and resources to support healthy births and strong families, while the Community and Employment Partners program focuses on independent living and employment for people with disabilities, with services tailored to individual choices.
