A Day in the Life of MACS and Our Customers
Our Mission
Founded by people with disabilities for people with disabilities, MACS believes in freedom and dignity for all. Our goal is to make the world a more inclusive place – to enable independent living without structures or constraints.
To ensure that MACS always puts the interests of our community first, 50% of our Management Committee – which is responsible for our corporate governance, financial and legal accountability – is composed of people with lived experience of disability.
What makes MACS different?
