2006 Edition
We are pleased to introduce this revised Directory of Services for People with Disabilities.
Link to Disability Specific Organizations Link to Information & Referral Link to Youth EDITOR'S NOTE This directory is intended to be a resource document of agencies and services, both local and throughout the country. Although an attempt was made to obtain complete and accurate information, many things do not remain constant. Therefore, if you know of additional agencies, services, or corrections to be made, please contact: The agencies listed in this guide can be of great assistance to persons with disabilities and their family members. Assisting persons with disabilities to gain their greatest level of independence in education, employment, transportation, and daily living skills enables them to be contributing members in today's society. Visually impaired or blind persons should contact our office to ask for this publication in Braille or on tape. This entire Directory is also located on our website. Neither this Division, nor the City of Jacksonville endorses, or recommends any private for profit businesses listed in this directory, but rather have provided this information for individuals to contact, and compare prices, services, and special accommodation features. For further information, consult your local telephone directory. |
Major advancements continue to be made in our country's and our community's perception of the needs and rights of people with disabilities. With that, there is a distinct improvement in services available to assist our disabled residents in becoming and remaining independent and contributing members of society.
