Our mission is to promote personal choice, self-determination, and equal access to community life for people with disabilities. At Walton Options, we promote equal access, self-determination, and independence through Personal Choice, Personal Responsibility, Community Access, Education and Employment. Our goal is to help each person find and utilize the necessary, available resources on their personal journey to independence.
Our Passion
Simple, it’s our community and you. It’s believing that we can be a part of a community that is accessible to people with disabilities and supportive of full community participation, and it’s seeing consumers achieve personal goals and realize that they are an integral part of the communities we live in and contribute to the strength of our community.
Our Work
Walton Options offers much more than simple services. Through the various programs and outreach we do, we:
- Guide persons with disabilities as they work towards new goals;
- Teach consumers how to utilize resources to enhance their independence;
- Promote the removal of attitudinal and architectural barriers;
- Offer real, impactful learning opportunities;
- Help consumers achieve self-sufficiency through understanding benefits such as Social Security Insurance (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).
- Promote equal employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities, regardless of their disability through an Employment First position.
Our Community
By working in and for our community, we are able to show that accessibility often starts with practical changes. Through small adjustments, reaching out, and thinking about removing barriers so people with disabilities can participate, the CSRA and the South Carolina Low Country can be thriving, accessible communities.
