Cape Abilities

The mission of Cape Abilities is to serve individuals with disabilities on Cape Cod by educating, counseling and providing residential, therapeutic, social and employment supports so as to empower them to achieve meaningful and valued roles in society.

Cape Abilities has a long history of providing services to people with disabilities on Cape Cod. Founded in 1968 as Nauset Workshop, Cape Abilities has consistently grown and expanded over the years. Cape Abilities provides jobs, homes, transportation, a therapeutic day skills program and support services for people with disabilities across Cape Cod.

At Cape Abilities, we believe everyone has abilities, and we strive to help our program participants reach their full potential every day.

A nonprofit organization, Cape Abilities supports people with disabilities across Cape Cod, from Bourne to Provincetown.  Headquartered in Hyannis, we also have centers in Eastham and Falmouth.
