About
In 2007, two established nonprofit organizations – Project Independence and Vantage Foundation – joined forces to better serve the needs of Orange County adults with developmental disabilities. While our merged history is still being written, each organization had a rich, 30-year history prior to the merger: Project Independence History Project Independence was established in 1977 by dedicated families of adults with developmental disabilities who envisioned more for their loved ones than lives of segregation, prejudice, and institutionalization. Their goal? To allow adults with developmental disabilities to exercise freedom and personal choice in their own lives. The Independent Living program was one of the first of its kind in Orange County and now serves hundreds of people, providing support that gives them the tools and confidence to take their rightful place in the community. Vantage Foundation History Vantage Foundation was incorporated in 1976 as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization. Its mission was to provide quality support for meaningful community integration and employment for people with the most significant developmental disabilities; through person-centered planning, well-trained staff, and growth opportunities for all. Vantage had a strong commitment to individuals with disabilities and the need for a comprehensive support network between policy makers, service providers, advocates, consumers and their families. Support for families and people with developmental disabilities include behavioral support, day services, independent living and supported employment and WIPA. Beginning in 2016 we will offer entitlement and benefits advocacy. For more information call our admin office at 714-549-3464
