New: accepting Family Support Waiver referrals

Our services

Person-centered support for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities — day services, adult day services, vocational and work-readiness support, residential Shared Living, and respite.

Adults · Residential

Shared Living

A certified provider welcomes an adult with an intellectual or developmental disability into their home, offering a supportive, family-style environment that promotes independence, community life, and a true sense of belonging.

Families & caregivers

Respite

Short-term, dependable care that gives families and caregivers a well-earned break — while the individual enjoys engaging, supportive time with our team.

Work readiness

Vocational Services

Pre-vocational and work-readiness support — building work skills, routines, soft skills, and confidence that help individuals grow toward greater independence and, for those who want it, employment readiness.
