About this organization
Mission
The Quest Team, through quality and innovation, builds communities where people with disabilities achieve their goals. For over 50 years, Quest has transformed the lives of thousands of adults and children with developmental disabilities through a range of services proven to increase capabilities and quality of life. We offer residential programs, employment training and placement, life-skills training at our three training centers, youth education and therapy, and recreational programs. We serve over 1,000 individuals daily at 26 locations in Orlando and Tampa. Quest's roots can be traced to the Central Florida Sheltered Workshop (founded in 1962) and Life Concepts. In 1994, these organizations merged to combine resources and serve a greater number of individuals with disabilities.
