The mission of the Heinzerling Community is to provide a loving and nurturing environment that enriches the development, education and quality of life of individuals with severe or profound developmental disabilities. The Heinzerling Community is located on the Southwest side of Columbus and provides 24 hour residential care for 208 individuals with severe developmental disabilities. A staff of over 520 professionals works around the clock to nurture our residents and give them a fulfilled life. This is accomplished through a personalized approach involving many therapies including physical/occupational therapy, communication skills, life skills, sensory development, and mobility opportunities for residents. Much of this occurs at the Heinzerling Community and off-site during community field trips.
