Lifespire Celebrates Another Milestone Year

NEW YORK, NY – On November 29th, Lifespire ® Inc. (www.lifespire.org) commemorated its 71st year of service to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, specifically within the New York City region and Westchester County. The agency has been making a difference in thousands of lives spanning eight decades, originally organized in 1951 by Ida Rappaport and Harry Kamish.

What began with a protest, and then grew into a process, today needs to be a persistent effort that creates meaningful and effectual change that impacts the lives of those served throughout the five boroughs and Westchester. Change, by definition, challenges the conventional, and with that being said, Lifespire creates integrative and safe environments where individuals with developmental disabilities engage with communities through a myriad of educational programs and activities.
