At Providence Center, our mission is to provide the most comprehensive services possible that allow individuals with disabilities to enjoy increased self-determination in leading a more independent, valuable and functioning role in society. These support services are individually designed and professionally managed to enable these individuals to exercise higher levels of control over their lives.
Providence Center has been leading the way for thousands of Marylanders with disabilities to live independent lives while providing comprehensive care and training to positively impact the individual and our communities.
Our person-centered approach puts those we serve, and their needs, first while empowering each individual to build their skills and abilities and chart their own path in life.
VISION
The Providence Center, founded in 1961, is the oldest and most comprehensive organization in Anne Arundel County serving the needs of adults with developmental disabilities. Our dedication to serving those living with disabilities is rooted in nurturing the individual, supporting their families and caregivers and serving our communities.
Providence Center is the first and only choice for the best, most committed care possible for those with developmental disabilities in Anne Arundel County. As we mark our 50th year in service, we will continue to advance our mission to improve the lives of those we assist.
