Birds of Encouragement Mural
At APSI, as a non-profit we support nearly 3,000 adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities across Ohio, providing guardianship and advocacy services to individuals with complex needs who deserve dignity, representation, and the chance to live full lives on their terms. The daily effort to ensure those things are available to our clients is our mission.
As an expansion of our work, APSI is launching Birds of Encouragement, a large-scale wall mural and statewide digital gallery that will celebrate the voices and creativity of those we serve. The mural will be installed on the side of our Clintonville office, located at 4110 N. High Street, and it will be built directly from client submissions, drawn birds paired with original messages of encouragement, all of which will be created by adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities from across the state.
Help us create something meaningful.
