How many people with disabilities are there? At least 15% of Monroe County residents have at least one disability, and one out of every four has mental health issues.

What are you doing to help them reach their full potential? Living with a serious physical and/or mental disability can be eased when those who are affected, and their caregivers, can access information, training, adaptive equipment, and treatment services. You support of the United Way’s Community Fund delivers for neighbors in need.

• Medical Motor Service provides transportation to eight out of every 10 people with disabilities in Monroe County who cannot use bus service—ensuring they can make it to important medical appointments, or other vital locations.

There’s no one solution, but people with disabilities benefit when we act as one.
