Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Back in the early 1950s, parents of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities wanted something that would enhance the lives of their children.

A new organization was founded in 1952 and with several name changes over the years we have the current name of LIFE Mower County.

Help us celebrate throughout the year by attending events, becoming a volunteer or making a donation. To learn more, please visit www.lifemowercounty.org/70thanniversary.
