HMEA (Horace Mann Educational Associates) supports children and adults with developmental disabilities such as autism and downs syndrome at home, in school, at work and in the community. We believe in the "power of dreams, not the limitation of disabilities."
HMEA celebrates diversity and actively supports staff in their own learning and professional development.
