The WHY

Families in Orange County and beyond struggle with limited post-high school options

Due to restrictions and long waiting lists for Medicaid waiver services, families in Orange County must often travel outside of the county to find meaningful day activities or vocational training. Garlyn Place will fill this need.

Building Independence

Empowering Futures Through Education, Employment, and Wellness

By leveraging strong leadership, a dedicated board, and operating community-based programs, Garlyn Place is well-positioned to fulfill its mission and achieve long-term sustainability.
