Envisioning Access, Inc.

Formerly Helping Hands: Monkey Helpers. After more than four decades of successfully delivering on our mission of providing service animals to help adults with physical disabilities live independent lives, we have recognized we need to adjust the way we operate in response to regulatory, market, and technology changes. Thus, we are transitioning from a service animal model to exploring specific technologies, including different assistive robotics as well as augmented and virtual reality, to provide opportunities to give those living with physical disabilities the independence to go back to school, find meaningful career opportunities, meet others virtually in a variety of settings, or travel the world. Innovative solutions make endless possibilities for innovative lives. Additionally, we are providing a safe, healthy, fulfilling environment for post-service and medically challenged monkeys for the rest of their lives at our state-of-the-art Monkey Living Center or in one of our special care homes/foster homes. As we go through our transition, we are guided by two fundamental principles: First, our mission, providing innovative technologies and quality-of-life opportunities to those living with physical disabilities, will remain our compass. Second, we will take care of our post-service monkeys until the end of their natural lives.
