Description

The History of BACH... The Brazoria County Association for Citizens with Handicaps, BACH, was organized in 1973 and chartered by the State of Texas in 1975 as a non-profit, 501c3 organization to serve the needs of persons with disabilities. BACH has expanded from its original 440-square-foot room donated by the Angleton- Danbury General Hospital to its present home in the Curry Building, a 9586-square-foot facility located on the Angleton-Danbury Medical Center campus, at 120 E. Hospital Drive in Angleton. Additional work space for BACH staff can be found at our branch offices located in Alvin, Pearland, and Lake Jackson. BACH was organized and developed by a group of dedicated volunteers who had a dream to provide for the needs of special children. This dream grew into a range of rehabilitation services. In 1982 BACH initiated The Early Childhood Intervention Program (ECI) through a grant from the Texas Interagency Council on Early Childhood Intervention, currently known as the Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services (DARS), Division of Early Childhood Intervention. BACH ECI provides an array of services to children in Brazoria County who are delayed in one or more of the following developmental areas: Cognitive (thinking, problem solving); Gross Motor (sitting, walking); Fine Motor (hand skills); Expressive Language (talking)/Receptive Language (processing information); Self-help (feeding, dressing); Social (getting along with others). BACH's ECI program works with the child's family to develop services for each child, provide support and information to parents, and help parents become advocates for their children. BACH also provides a variety of FREE services to children age birth to 12-years-old and their families through its Support Services Program. The BACH Integration Station is a specialized clinic which focuses on the needs of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders and sensory processing issues. BACH
