As 2025 comes to a close, we are taking a minute to reflect on the work and impact we’ve achieved this year.

Here’s a look at some of AdLib’s 2025 achievements:

-Serve 1,690 people with disabilities in Berkshire County.
-Support 24 people transitioning from long term care to community living.
Start a housing workshop to educate people with disabilities about housing options and resources in the Berkshires.
-Participate in statewide advocacy campaign preventing caps on the PCA program.

As we move into 2026 we will continue work on our mission to empower people with disabilities to live active lives in the community of their choice. Please consider a year-end donation to AdLib to support our work!
