Description
Marrakech is a diverse nonprofit organization that has been providing person-centered, unique, and cost-effective human services for children and adults with and without disabilities throughout Connecticut for over 47 years. The services provided and individuals we support are diverse. But, there is a common goal: assist individuals with achieving greater self-sufficiency while they experience the best quality of life possible.
Our caring, inclusive and supportive team serves over 1300 individuals each year. They are our neighbors with disabilities, our children transitioning to adulthood, our friends battling with addiction, homelessness, and mental illness, and our community members who need to acquire skills to find a job or make ends meet. We do this by providing homes, building skills, supporting families, and helping people reach their potential. The result: stronger communities.
Marrakech, Inc. subscribes to a practice that assures that each person who is referred for services has a highly individualized service plan. Marrakech works diligently with funding sources to use resources effectively. The organization’s community and employment services are accredited by CARF International.
