We are guided by compassion, innovation, and an unshakeable belief in human potential. We work every day to help make dreams come true for people of all abilities. Building on the legacy of Annabel and Clifford Bollinger, the families in the Warren-Forest region count on us for consistent, compassionate support from two family names that generations have come to trust and know.
Barber National Institute’s Bollinger campus is committed to meeting goals that include:
– Expand the Community Participation Supports program that provides access to resources in the community that leads to greater inclusion and participation by persons with disabilities.
– Help adults develop employment skills and work with local businesses to provide opportunities that will lead to community employment.
– Provide greater access to areas of interest, including the arts, music, volunteerism, and activities promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Your donation to Warren Gives 2026 will be directed to continuing and expanding the Creative Connections art program, which engages professional, teaching artists in our adult day programs and culminates with a public showcase, performance, or exhibition, celebrating not only the art created but also the stories of our participants. Your gifts in 2025 supported Fit Drumming and two six-week artist-in-residency experiences.
We invite our donors to help fulfill the promise made by Dr. Gertrude Barber and Annabel and Clifford Bollinger – the belief in a world where people of all abilities belong and reach their full potential.
