About Us Our Mission & History
Since 1976, Access Central Coast (ACC) has been a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing disability rights and supporting independence. We serve individuals of all ages, income levels, and disability experiences throughout Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties.
Our services are designed to help people increase or maintain their independence. Grounded in the Independent Living Philosophy, we believe every person has the right to direct their own life. Our team-based approach empowers clients to be active participants in identifying their needs, setting goals, and shaping the support they receive.
Through advocacy, personalized resources, and skill-building opportunities, ACC works to remove barriers and promote full inclusion for people with disabilities.
Access Central Coast's mission is to inspire independence, advance accessibility, and foster equity for people with disabilities.
