Commission for the Disabled/Handicapped

Who are we and what do we do?

The Commission serves the disabled and handicapped Jackson residents by providing a variety of recreational, educational and social activities throughout the calendar year. Our events are open to all ages.

Mission Statement

The Commission for the Disabled/Handicapped, under the auspices of Jackson Township, advocates for their advancement and independence through events, trips and recreational programs.

The Commission provides help and information to residents in finding the proper agency responsible in resolving specific problems.

Started in 1971, the Commission for the Disabled/Handicapped (formerly the Mayor’s Commission for the Disabled) was the first organization of its kind in Ocean County to offer such a wide variety of programs for people with disabilities and special needs.

Equipment Lending Service

The Commission lends and accepts medical equipment that is new or in good condition. The Commission for the Disabled may refuse certain equipment due to large inventory of items.
