Jobs at Achieva

Statement of Mission:

Achieva advocates for, empowers, and supports people with disabilities and their families throughout their lives.

Statement of Vision:

Achieva envisions a community where all people with disabilities lead lives of personal significance.

Achieva was founded in 1951 by a group of family members who all desired the same thing: to ensure their children with disabilities had the same chances in life that all children should be given. Their commitment helped establish chapters of The Arc in Allegheny, Westmoreland, and Beaver Counties and contributed to a nationwide movement that changed the long history of isolation and segregation for both children and adults with disabilities. Achieva proudly continues its affiliation with The Arc to this day.
