Programs and Services

Our Community Homes Services currently include six homes and an apartment complex known as ApartmentPlus.

Each of our residences provide a safe, secure, and stimulating environment where adults with disabilities can learn, grow, nurture relationships with their housemates, and actively participate in the community around them.

The Community Home Services Program is based on two key tenants:

*Life Skills Development

Our homes are designed to enable residents to function as independently as possible. Our residential staff only assist with the activities of daily living as needed. We also encourage the residents to pursue whatever leisure time activity makes them happy (playing a musical instrument, doing crafts, watching TV, playing games, etc.)

* Community Integration.

We identify and nurture opportunities for participants to be involved in leisure and recreational activities of interest to them. To that end, we provide transportation to and from, and facilitate the use of, such community resources as shopping centers, libraries, parks, museums, theaters, festivals, etc.

Each community home is staffed around the clock so there is someone available onsite 24/7 in case of emergency.

ApartmentPlus

This housing option is slightly different in that it fills the gap between in-home care and group home care. We currently have 10 people living in individual apartments, while we maintain a staff apartment in the complex. This arrangement affords the residents a greater degree of freedom and independence, while also providing a safeguard for emergency situations. Our staff provide approximately 15 hours a week of support and planned social activities, such as dinner night, game night, movie night, etc.
