The grant will go to the Multi-Assistance Center at Morgan’s Wonderland in San Antonio.
The investment will fund a new employment center to provide education and employment counseling and coaching to people with disabilities. The Multi-Assistance Center will also add Practice Without Pressure medical care, a methodology that allows people with disabilities to receive healthcare without restraint and with reduced need for sedation.
“This is a unique opportunity for UnitedHealthcare to help break two significant barriers to equity for people with disabilities — access to healthcare and stable employment — through a single partnership,” Donald Langer, CEO of UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Texas, said in a news release.
