Up A Notch Abilities

04/21/2026

I am filled with immense pride today reflecting on how far Up A Notch Abilities has come in just a little over 4 years! Seeing our mission grow right here in South Bay San Diego, the place we call home is truly a dream come true! 🌴✨

Our team has worked hard to turn a vision into a reality that actually makes a difference in our community, creating numerous support services for those who need it most, and a space for creatives to expand the support in our community!

To all my family, friends, and community, your support means everything to us. As we continue to expand and serve, I’d love for you to follow our journey, share our work, and support our mission to make San Diego a better place for everyone!

Together, we can create lasting change! ❤️
