    Howland Avenue, located in Beacon, New York is Ability Beyond's newest and largest home. Built in 2013, Howland is home to 14 individuals with intellectual and physical disabilities and have medically complex needs. There is a large staffing pattern which includes 24 hour nursing. In addition to residential services, Howland has a day program on site which is especially unique to us. We have an amazing sensory stimulation room which our individuals engage in and enjoy on regular basis. The individuals of Howland enjoy going out into the community and participating in various sensory stimulation activities. What makes our program amazingly awesome is that we are able to provide individuals who were once institutionalized with a beautiful state of the art forever home that is accessible, equipped to meet their needs and staffed with compassionate well trained staff to care for them. Each individual has their own their own room and the surroundings are absolutely beautiful and serene as we sit atop of a mountain with incredible seasonal views.
