Board & Staff Members

Who we are?

Since January 2001, Ability 1st Utah has been providing services to individuals with all types of disabilities and of any age to help them achieve their goal of remaining independent in their homes and active in their communities.  Our organization seeks to help individuals with disabilities to remove whatever limitations they may encounter along the way and turn them into opportunities for developing their abilities to enjoy independent living lifestyles.

Board of Directors

Ability 1st Utah Board of Directors provides center governance and direction for the center. Board members are volunteers from communities in our centers service area.

As a federal mandate membership of our Board of Directors must be at least 51% individuals with disabilities. The Board of Directors meets once a month except for July and December no Board meetings are held on these months.

The Board meetings are held every third Thursday of each month at the Center. If you are interested in becoming a Board member or would like more formation about Ability 1st Utah Board of Directors, please call Sandra at 801-373-5044.
