By opening a state-of-the-art medical center and partnering with Penn Dental Medicine, Woods shattered the myth that healthcare is difficult t... o obtain medical care for people with disabilities.
More Than a Century of Innovation
When Mollie Woods opened the Woods School in 1913, her vision to “teach the exceptional child” was revolutionary. She fought for better science, better resources, and better lives. Her vision lives on, and the school that started with a single student is now a comprehensive network that serves 32,000 people every year.
Woods Pushes Boundaries
Mollie Woods rejected the status quo. When the standard of care for children with disabilities was institutionalized, she instead chose education, science, and knowledge.
A Pioneering Spirit
Woods System of Care was the first organization of its kind to embrace a population health model that would meet the lifelong needs of its clients.
With You Every Step of the Way
By assembling 10 specialized organizations (so far) that work in harmony, the Woods System of Care meets a vast array of needs, simple to complex, across the entire lifespan.
