Aspire is a leader in services for children and adults with developmental disabilities and their families. Whether we help a child take her first steps or assist an adult to find his first job, our goal is always the same – helping people with developmental disabilities achieve their highest potential where they live, learn, work or play. Aspire was recently featured on NBC’s TODAY show by co-anchor Meredith Vieira as a “local nonprofit doing amazing things,” and named Chicago’s Charity after more than 150,000 people voted across the nation for Classy Awards.
