APD Mission and Vision
Florida’s Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD) exists to support individuals with unique abilities and their families. According to the APD mission, the agency seeks to help people with disabilities live, learn and work within their communities by creating multiple pathways to possibilities. APD strives to ensure that every individual receives the supports and resources they need to lead meaningful lives.
The agency’s vision is a state where persons with developmental disabilities can achieve their personal goals, exercise choice and participate fully in community life. APD partners with providers, families and stakeholders to deliver quality services that foster independence, dignity and community integration.
