Lochland, located in Geneva, New York, is a small non-profit organization providing day habilitation and residential services to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Lochland was established in 1933 by Ms. Florence Stewart, who was widely recognized as a pioneer in the education of disabled children. For almost 80 years, Lochland has remained small enough to offer a family-like atmosphere but able to meet life-long needs of each resident as they progress through their senior years. Today, just as it was in 1933, Lochland still places an emphasis on self-determination, greater independence, individuality and inclusion in society for those who are disabled. With support from friends and the community, Lochland will continue to be, with foresight and imagination, an asset to the Finger Lakes Region.
