A core value of Gateways Community Services is the empowerment of individuals with developmental disabilities, brain acquired injuries, and veterans.

For seniors, the organization is committed to providing the resources necessary to promote an active lifestyle and enable them to continue living at home comfortably and securely.
Specialized support is provided through the Gateways Autism Center, which focuses on individuals diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum or those with disabilities that impact behavior. The Center is dedicated to personalized care that enhances skill development and fosters growth towards greater independence and enrichment. In addition to direct care, the organization invests in the community by preparing new professionals for impactful careers through initiatives such as the free Direct Support Professional (DSP) Online Certification Program. This new training program emphasizes both expertise and hands-on experience, presenting a unique opportunity for career growth. The program is accessible, offering course materials in multiple languages including Portuguese and Spanish.
