The mission of New Avenues to Independence is to provide opportunities for people with disabilities and special needs to become more independent and productive members of society by offering the highest quality support services and developing innovative and inclusive programs. 

​

For more than 65 years, New Avenues has served men, women, youth, and children with disabilities and chronic health challenges in Northeast Ohio. We currently assist over 300 people with conditions such as autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, mental illness, and traumatic brain injury, among others. We offer each individual and their caregivers a menu of choices for independent-living experiences in three counties in Northeast Ohio, including Cuyahoga, Lake, and Ashtabula. New Avenues is a certified provider for the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities.
