What we do
ABC Disability Support Group was founded in 2018 when the the founders, Mark and Liz Lyles, were having a difficult time navigating the school system for their young daughter. There was not a community for people with disabilities at that time in their area. They did not want to see another family struggle as they had and so ABC Disability Support Group became that resource for other families. Liz was trained in special education law as an advocate and continues to be the only non-profit special education advocate south of Pueblo, Colorado. We are advocating for a better community, inclusion, and acceptance. We provide Information, advocacy, and support for the intellectually and developmentally disabled and their families. We are here to help!
