About Us

ACAP builds pathways for people who have disabilities to express their passions and demonstrate their abilities in the community around them. ACAP is not merely an assemblage of members and staff, but is composed of people coming together to work, learn, adapt, and serve the community. We endeavor to build up the larger community, and in so doing, discover our valued place within it.

Additionally, three staff members have been with the organization for over 20 years, providing stability and consistency in service delivery. ACAP regularly sponsors recreation therapy interns from top-ranked programs in the state, who help deliver programs and care for members while learning and practicing on the job.

Our Philosophy

Since our place is within the context of the community, we do not separate ourselves by segregated facilities or signage denoting our distinction from the community. We are members of it and therefore strive to make our presence visible as fellow citizens and consumers—not visitors.
