What We Do

About Pillar

Pillar, originally established in 1988 as the Apple Patch Community, serves people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In 2018, we rebranded as Pillar – a name that better encompasses the strength, stability and support we provide to empower the individuals we serve. Pillar offers residential homes, engaging daytime programs at 4 locations throughout Louisville, case management, and transportation services.
