What Inglis does

Inglis is a Philadelphia-based nonprofit organization founded in 1877 that provides a continuum of disability services to people with physical disabilities, primarily across Pennsylvania. Its core offerings include Inglis House, a skilled nursing long-term care community specializing in adults with severe neurodegenerative physical disabilities such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, and cerebral palsy; Inglis Community Services, which delivers care management, supported employment, home modifications, and the statewide Self-Determination Housing of Pennsylvania (SDHP) program; and Inglis Housing Corporation, which develops and operates affordable, accessible apartment communities. Two Innovation Centers—in Philadelphia (opened 2019) and Pittsburgh (opened 2023)—serve as hubs for community-based programming including assistive technology assessments, smart home implementation, 3D printing and R&D, and the Inglis Impact Accelerator for entrepreneurs with disabilities.

The organization's assistive technology stack includes the Inglis Assistive Tech Solutions (IATS) program delivered by RESNA-certified Assistive Technology Professionals, an Adapted Technology Lab with 35 workstations operating 363 days a year, Tobii eye-gaze systems, VR programming, and a 3D printing R&D lab that produces customized adaptive devices. National partnerships with Comcast, Amazon, WGBH Boston, and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia support prototype accessibility standard development. Inglis also maintains clinical partnerships, notably a 20+ year relationship with the Thomas Jefferson University Multiple Sclerosis Comprehensive Clinical Center and a recent Innovation Partner Award from Jefferson Moss-Magee Rehabilitation.

Inglis operates as a nonprofit with revenue drawn from Medicaid waivers and government contracts, housing rental income and subsidies, federal and state grants (e.g., Highmark Wholecare), and donations and fundraising events such as the annual BASH gala. Services reach more than 1,000 individuals daily and 2,500+ annually across Pennsylvania, expanding to over 4,500 annually after the planned July 2026 affiliation with Community Integrated Services (CIS), which adds employment service coverage in Delaware. The organization employs 501–1,000 staff and is governed by multiple sub-boards (Inglis House, Housing Corporation, Community Services).
