About Us
Dorothy Glaspie Foundation
The program founder and director, Phillip Goffner, developed a deep commitment to advocacy and service for individuals with disabilities through personal and familial experience. As a youth, both his mother and grandmother suffered from mental illness. As a young adult, Phillip assisted in caring for both.
Dorothy Glaspie Foundation is a small, family oriented 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, that is dedicated to serving individuals with disabilities so that they can live free and independent lives of their choice.
His mother’s mental illness, coupled with the lack of support and resources she received, eventually led to the development of severe physical medical impairments that resulted in early death when Phillip was 16 years old.
Phillip has always been passionate about helping people get the proper care and support for their unique needs which is why he has dedicated his career to serving individuals with intellectual, physical, and developmental disabilities. Phillip understands that what he experienced as a child could have been prevented with the proper resources and treatment. Phillip developed the Dorothy Glaspie foundation so that he may contribute to his community by assisting individuals who need these services so that they may lead full, independent, and fruitful lives of their choice.
