Laura Baker Services Association
As a disability services provider dedicated to bringing the power of possibilities to people with special needs, we offer a continuum of living, educational and support services so that families can choose the options that will best support their loved ones in leading fulfilling lives.
Our Vision
Laura Baker Services Association’s vision is a community where everyone has a place at the table and an organization that is not defined by physical space. We seek innovative ways to ensure that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities can live, work and recreate in the community as they choose.
