SERVING OUR COMMUNITY WITH PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS WHO HAVE DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES SINCE 1966

Waban Projects, Inc. is a non-profit corporation organized to develop and operate programs which promote the general welfare and education of children and adults with developmental disabilities.

Waban Projects, Inc., a community based agency, believes in the principles of normalization, integration and self-empowerment in the least restrictive environment. All programs, residential and day, operate utilizing those principles.

Waban Projects, Inc. was born from a dream four decades ago. Four lifetime friends had a vision for a special place where people with developmental disabilities and other special needs could enjoy the summer and that would offer a respite for their families. This restful place would be founded on the principle of providing loving help, motivation and patience so vital to the human needs of each person. Each program would be designed to create a sense of self-awareness and to build strong self-esteem and pride borne from accomplishment. Their goal was to try to offer people of all ages with physical and mental disabilities the best place in the world in which to reach their maximum potential.

Camp Waban has blossomed into a larger organization known as Waban Projects that offers a variety of services to people with developmental disabilities.
