Home-Based Services
Our Home-Based Services program provides comprehensive, individualized support to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the comfort of their own homes. Our Self-Directed Assistants work collaboratively with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their family members, caregivers, therapists, and support staff to develop customized plans that address their unique needs and goals.
Our home-based services program includes a range of services, such as personal care assistance, therapy services (including physical, occupational, and speech therapy), behavioral support, mobility modifications, home modifications, and/or life skills training. We believe in empowering individuals to live their best lives by providing the support they need to thrive at home and in their communities. We are dedicated to promoting independence, inclusion, and quality of life for all of our clients.
