Damar Services, Inc.

About

What started in 1967 as a heartfelt mission by two parents looking for answers for their children has grown into one of America's leading providers of services to people with developmental, behavioral, and intellectual disabilities. Damar Services began with a simple but profound goal: to offer remarkable care and achieve remarkable results for individuals facing life's greatest developmental challenges. In its early days, the organization focused on providing a safe, supportive environment where children could thrive despite their diagnoses. Over the decades, this grassroots initiative blossomed into a comprehensive network of care that now serves thousands of families across Central Indiana and beyond. As the needs of the community evolved, so did Damar's approach. The organization expanded its reach to support individuals of all ages—from toddlers taking their first steps to senior citizens requiring specialized adult services. Today, Damar operates a sprawling main campus, multiple ABA clinics, specialized schools like the Damar Charter Academy, and extensive community-based treatment programs. Their journey from a small, parent-led initiative to a massive non-profit with over a thousand dedicated professionals is a testament to their unwavering commitment to innovation and compassion. Through the years, Damar has continuously adapted, integrating cutting-edge behavioral health care and trauma-informed practices to ensure that every person they serve can lead a remarkable, independent life. What began as a search for answers has transformed into a beacon of hope, proving that with the right support, individuals with developmental disabilities can achieve their fullest potential.
