Overview

About Able South Carolina

Able SC is a disability-led organization seeking transformational changes in systems, communities, and individuals.
Since 1994, we’ve remained a consumer-controlled, community-based, cross-disability nonprofit that seeks to make South Carolina a national model of equity and inclusion for all people with disabilities.
We are the state’s oldest and largest federally recognized disability-led organization.
More than 3/4 of our staff are people with disabilities, as are over half of our Board of Directors.
We practice coequality, disability justice and representation, and true inclusion through consumer-driven independence and disability pride.
We didn’t just learn this.
As people with disabilities, our work doesn’t end when we leave the office. Disability is part of who we are. We live this every day.
