Access Services

Every individual with special needs is entitled to be part of a community and have the opportunity to lead a rich, fulfilling life. From children and adults with developmental disabilities to those facing mental health challenges, we believe that everyone has the power to overcome tremendous adversity. They only need a steady, helping hand to open the door and guide them on their way.

Since 1976 Access Services has been this helping hand, empowering countless individuals, families and communities in southeastern Pennsylvania through community-based specialized services. We have made it our mission to provide those in need with companionship, hope and opportunity; helping them grow to live independent, meaningful lives on their own terms.
