Creating a world where adults with disabilities thrive.
The good news? Today’s life expectancy of a person with an intellectual disability is 60 years old—up 240% since 1983, when it was only 35.
The challenge? Most services for those with intellectual disabilities, like Down Syndrome, drop off when they’re just 22. That leaves 40 years unaccounted for.
22plus envisions a world where individuals with intellectual disabilities are equipped with the necessary tools, support, and resources to create a joyful and fulfilling life, integrating into society in meaningful and impactful ways.
