History
For over 75 years our organization has been providing resources and services for children and adults to maximize their independence. In 1945, a small group of dedicated parents and volunteers in Los Angeles united to provide home and community-based services for their children when no services of this kind existed. Today, the organization they founded and nurtured is known as Momentum and we remain true to our mission of advancing the independence, productivity and full citizenship of children and adults with disabilities and medical conditions. Momentum is the largest nonprofit provider of direct-care services for adults in Southern California. We have over 35 program and services sites providing an array of individualized resources so individuals can choose how they want to live their day-to-day lives.
Specialties
We have 37 programs and service sites across five counties in Southern California helping support more than 6,500 children, adults, and families. We proudly offer adult community integration services, community living services, residential services, independent living apartments, art studio and gallery, as well as pediatric therapy.
