Developmental Disabilities (DD)

A community-based residential program for adults with developmental disabilities.

Residential services are tailored to the needs of each individual based on an individualized support plan that the resident is involved with creating, with an emphasis on gaining independence.

Opportunities for maintaining family relationships, peer interaction, community involvement and social interactions are also available. Pursuit of hobbies and interests is encouraged.

We focus on six basic areas which include:

  • Community Living
  • Integrated Community Involvement
  • Healthy Living
  • Safety and Security
  • Citizenship and Advocacy
  • Social and Spirituality
