Overview

KenCrest provides community-based supports for people with intellectual or developmental disabilities and autism across Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut, serving over 12,500 individuals at about 400 sites. It offers Early Intervention, Birth-to-Five, preschool, home- and community-based services, Head Start, Lifesharing, Community Living options, and Employment services. Its long history (founded in 1905) and broad, age-spanning program mix—along with living options from group homes to family-based Lifesharing—set it apart, as it integrates education, housing, and work supports in one umbrella across three states. The goal is to help people with disabilities and their families achieve meaningful, independent lives in their communities through coordinated supports addressing education, daily living, housing, and employment.
