IMAGINE DIFFERENT COALITION

THE IMAGINE DIFFERENT COALITION

The Imagine Different Coalition, formed in May of 2014, is a group of parents, advocates, professionals, and allies from across the state that has come together because of a shared concern about the number of children with disabilities growing up in congregate care.  Coalition members agreed to work towards a Commonwealth that proudly assures that each and every child living here grows up in a family home where they are loved and nurtured.

WE BELIEVE
We believe all children should grow up in families, and with the right supports this can happen for all children with disabilities.

Our Mission  
Our mission is to champion systemic change and the development of community support to ensure that every PA child with disabilities who lives in or is at risk of being placed in a congregate care setting can alternatively grow up in a well-supported and loving family.
