The Harry
Meyering Center, Inc. was begun in 1973 by the local ARC and parents seeking
a residential alternative to a state institution that would be
available to their adult children with mental retardation when
the parents became unable to care for them.
The name was chosen
to honor Harry Meyering, a professor at Mankato State College
(now Minnesota State University-Mankato), and an early leader in
the field of mental retardation.
The Harry
Meyering Center is a non-profit agency, governed by a volunteer
Board of Directors.
