Excentia is a nonprofit organization in Lancaster County providing supports to people with developmental needs from birth through adulthood. Its our goal to be able to provide comprehensive supports for as little or as long as they are needed.

To provide those supports necessary to enable people with developmental needs to live as independently and fully as they desire within the community.   In support of our mission, we believe:

• People with developmental needs are unique individuals with the same thoughts, desires, and dreams as anyone else.
• Each individual possesses gifts and talents that enhance and nurture the richness and diversity of the community.
• Each person’s capabilities, desires, and dreams will be the foundation for service choices and the individual receiving supports and services always comes FIRST!
• The development of service options for each person will be enhanced by an environment and attitude which is supportive and nurturing.
• Planning and decision-making can best occur through the commitment to a strengthening of a dynamic partnership between the individual, family, friends, the community and Excentia.  This network of relationships is integral to our mission and central to the concept of “Excentia.”
