Why Walk or Run?
This year, funds raised by Walk/Run for Abilis will support enhancing our day program a place where individual choice drives meaningful experiences. From life skills and job training to building friendships, we offer small group and personalized programs that empower every participant. While DDS funding supports larger group environments, it falls short of covering the individual attention each person deserves. Your support for Walk/Run for Abilis will help bridge that gap, ensuring everyone at Abilis has the opportunity to thrive.

So get ready for a great day full of camaraderie and celebration at the 20th annual Walk/Run for Abilis.
