Racker

At Racker, we believe in creating a world where all people know they belong. For over 75 years, we have dedicated ourselves to supporting individuals with disabilities and their families in leading fulfilling lives. Our rich history began in 1948, when we were first established to provide strength-based support to those in need. Since then, Racker has evolved into a pivotal community resource that serves over 3,500 individuals across Tompkins, Cortland, and Tioga counties.

Our mission is customer-centric; we focus on opportunities that enhance personal connections and community integration. Our services encompass a spectrum of programs that provide individuals the chance to learn, engage, and thrive in their surroundings. From self-directed services that empower clients to take charge of their support structures, to specialized programs tailored for various needs, our intent is to focus on individual potential rather than labels. Collaboration between families, caregivers, and our dedicated staff ensures that everyone involved experiences empowerment, joy, and accomplishment. Racker continues to stand as a firm advocate for a community that welcomes all, promoting health equity and inclusion for individuals with disabilities. Together, we are reshaping lives, one connection at a time.
