All of the services offered are results-oriented and focus on increasing the independence and full citizenship of each individual.

PERSON CENTER PLANNING
The person centered planning process, is intended to identify how one wants to live and describes what supports are needed to help them to move forward towards a quality lifestyle. It supports the individual to achieve a meaningful and productive life that provides them opportunities to contribute to their community.

COMMUNITY INCLUSION ACTIVITIES
Our Community Inclusion approach includes opportunities in housing, employment, education, leisure/recreation, religion, health care and citizenship. The outcome of community inclusion is participation in community settings where people without disabilities are present, having a wide variety of relationships and being part of the community, not just an observer.
