Mission Statement
Pine Castle's mission is to empower adults with intellectual and developmental differences through opportunities to learn, work, and connect.
About This Cause
Pine Castle has been serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) for over 70 years. Founded by 33 families in 1952, Pine Castle was one of the first organizations in the state to provide support services to children with IDD. Since then, Pine Castle has expanded its services to serve the adult population, offering programs such as Pathway to Life Enrichment, Pathway to Community Employment, and Residential Program. Through these programs, Pine Castle empowers adults with IDD to learn, work, and connect with their community. The Pathway to Life Enrichment program focuses on developing life skills necessary to increase overall independence and quality of life, while the Pathway to Community Employment program provides pre-vocational classes and work skills training in on-site workshops or on-campus crews. Additionally, Pine Castle's Residential Program offers group homes and independent living options for participants. Pine Castle's vision is to create a community where individuals with IDD achieve their full potential for independence. The organization's Academy concept not only helps participants advance through skill mastery but also serves as a model for educating the community about the many talents and abilities of individuals with IDD. Pine Castle's commitment to serving those with IDD has made a significant impact on the lives of many individuals and families in Florida. Volunteer support is essential to fulfilling our mission. We need volunteers to provide one-on-one support for our Senior's program, ranging from reading and art-making opportunities, to walking the track and doing chair yoga.
