About Us

Choose The Legacy Way

Legacy Empowerment Services was co-founded by Mayra Martinez and Anthony Perez in 2019 with a simple but powerful mission: to deliver truly individualized, person centered support for members with developmental and intellectual disabilities.

 

Through our authorized DDD programs, dedicated transportation, and our NJ FamilyCare  Housing Supports Program (HSP), we live and breathe The Legacy Way. For us, that means  wrapping comprehensive support around our members to help them build lives filled with  dignity, self-determination, long-term independence, stability, and authentic community  connection.
