We support adults aged 55 and older who are on the autism spectrum or living with physical or cognitive disabilities. Our goal is to help each person live more independently, confidently, and meaningfully within a supportive community.
What kinds of services does AIC offer?
Our services include life skills training, employment guidance, housing support, relationship and dating resources, and community-building activities. Each program is designed to address the unique needs of older adults living with disabilities.
Is AIC only for people with autism?
No. While we support individuals on the autism spectrum, we also serve seniors with a wide range of disabilities, physical, cognitive, or developmental. This includes mobility challenges, vision or hearing impairments, speech disorders, Down syndrome, and more.
Do I need a diagnosis to join or receive support?
A formal diagnosis is not always required to participate in our programs. If you’re 55 or older and living with a disability that affects your daily life, we encourage you to reach out. We’ll work with you to determine how we can best support your needs.
Can caregivers or family members get involved?
Absolutely. We welcome caregivers, family members, and guardians as valued partners in care. You can participate in support groups, training, or simply stay informed about your loved one’s progress and options.
How can I volunteer with AIC?
We’re always looking for caring individuals to join our volunteer community. Volunteers help with activities, provide companionship, offer transportation, and support daily operations. Contact us to learn more about current volunteer opportunities.
Are services free, or is there a cost involved?
Some services are provided free of charge, while others may have a small fee depending on the program. We also work with individuals to explore any financial assistance options that may be available.
What makes AIC different from other disability support organizations?
We focus exclusively on adults aged 55 and older, a group often overlooked in disability services. Our programs are specifically designed to meet the complex and evolving needs of older adults, combining practical support with deep respect for each person’s dignity and individuality.
How does AIC support independent living?
We provide guidance on housing options, teach essential life skills, and connect participants with resources to help them live more independently. Our team can also assist with planning transitions from assisted care to more self-sufficient living arrangements.
How do I get started or enroll in a program?
Getting started is easy. Simply contact us through our website, email, or phone, and a member of our team will reach out to learn more about your needs and recommend the best next steps.
