We’re here to support children with disabilities, autism, behavioral health needs and developmental delays – because, we know, with the right support, guidance and opportunities, every child can achieve incredible things.
Our adult services are designed to support individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism as they pursue independence, personal growth, community involvement, and lifelong learning.
For more than 70 years, Barber National Institute has stood by the promise that families are never alone. We’ve stood with families – celebrating abilities, creating opportunities, and building a community of care.
