Our mission is to equip people with the knowledge, skills, and behaviors needed to lead useful and productive lives with dignity, respect and independence.

How it All Started

In the 1970s, vocational training was offered at the far end of Palm Beach County. Due to the distance, families in Boca Raton and nearby areas found it difficult to send their family members there. In 1973, 12 acres of land on Boca Rio Road was donated by the Palm Beach County Commission. This was the beginning of the Habilitation Center for the Handicapped, Inc. (HabCenter).

On July 26, we recognize National Disability Independence Day, commemorating the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the progress made toward greater accessibility, inclusion, and equal opportunity for all. At HabCenter, we believe independence looks different for everyone and every step toward greater self-confidence, self-advocacy, employment, community engagement, and personal growth deserves to be celebrated.

Each day, we are inspired by the determination, talents, and achievements of the individuals we serve. Whether learning new skills, building meaningful relationships, exploring creative passions, entering the workforce, or pursuing personal goals, they remind us that true inclusion means creating opportunities for everyone to thrive.

Today, we celebrate a historic milestone, and the incredible individuals who continue to break barriers, challenge perceptions, and make our community stronger. Together, we can build a future where every person is valued, included, and empowered to live with dignity, purpose, and independence.
