Systems Unlimited is a nonprofit provider of creative, leading edge services to people with disabilities in eastern Iowa.

Systems Unlimited was among the first agencies in the country to obtain low-income housing from HUD, which allowed people to live in small, non-institutional environments in a community of their choice. The agency s main office is in Iowa City, Iowa, but it also has satellite offices in Cedar Rapids, Monticello, Muscatine, Washington and Burlington, Iowa.
