It all began in 2002 at a local softball field.
Two moms, both of daughters with disabilities, talking about how they wish they had known then what they know now.
More than 20 years later, what began as a social conversation is now a successful, thriving resource for families across Alabama. This H.O.P.E. for families, to be better equipped for the season of transition from school to adult life, was the catalyst that developed into The Full Life Ahead Foundation.
Our intentional approach of family + community is a key component to the successful navigation into post-graduation life. Through activities & programming created to build an array of life skills, individuals engage in social skills, discovering the value of teamwork, and building a support system of community involvement and friendship – all while equipping them to lead the fullest, most independent life possible.
