Bishop Alliance was founded in 2020 with the goal of helping individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities find joy in growth and independence. 

 

John grew up in a military family, living on submarine bases along the East Coast and in San Diego. This experience shaped him into someone who values family, structure, organization and commitment. Following his family’s Honorable discharge from the Navy he moved to Chicago with his parents and 4 siblings. There, John continued his education, ultimately graduating from the University of Wisconsin - Parkside with a degree in Fitness Management where he also earned a scholarship to play baseball. Each of these life experiences taught him the importance of teamwork, dedication, perseverance, and consistent pursuit of a goal. 

 

Education and helping others reach their full potential is John’s passion. Having family members who are diagnosed with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities while working in various areas of disability services led to the establishment of Bishop Alliance. Our mission is a culmination of experiences and a desire to help others reach their full potential. 

 

Through accountability, hard work, family values, and an enriching environment we help our clients find joy in being part of a community that encourages their independence.
