Founded in 1985, Gesher Disability Resources serves children and adults affected by a disability through inclusion assistance in the classroom, resource referral, residential support and social groups.
Gesher programs offer tools that break down barriers caused by stigma and isolation within the Intellectual & Developmental Disability (IDD) community, making participation in social activities like bowling, swimming, zoo visits and other special events integral to their well-being. Every month, Gesher offers activities focused on inclusivity and fun for all. Expansion of Gesher’s residential program is a priority this year since members of the IDD community have difficulty accessing safe, secure, affordable housing. Gesher also offers educational support for students with learning challenges attending private schools that lack the bandwidth to provide individualized learning. Over 4,000 Arizonans are impacted by Gesher programming each year.
