Achievement Center - Easter Seals

Creating Solutions, Changing Lives

About Us

 

The Achievement Center - Easter Seals was established in 1961 in a movement to offer quality services to individuals with disabilities.  Since its beginning, the Center is a cooperative community effort among industry, Easter Seals Alabama, state and local education systems, Alabama Department of Rehabilitation Services and the Veterans Administration.  This cooperative effort has minimized the duplication of services and maximized the quality and quantity of services delivered to those benefiting from our assistance.

The Center is also in partnership with Auburn University and Troy University whereby students may fulfill practicum and internships requirements by serving in a number of roles at the Center.
