Residential Support Program for Disabled Adults - 4 minutes read

Residential support program for disabled adults, this program assists aging and

disabled adults in finding suitable living arrangements, from medical evaluations and

financial applications, through counseling support to help adjust to new surroundings.

AHRC NYC provides residential programs in both private homes and apartments that

prioritize community inclusion and a family atmosphere, featuring personalized services

as well as access to day habilitation programs and employment opportunities.

The Brambles

Adults living with both physical and intellectual disabilities are granted autonomy and

freedom to pursue their goals, with help provided through a personalized Person-

Centered Plan focusing on their needs and capabilities. Furthermore, their home

environment facilitates this growth.

The Brambles is a family-owned and operated business located in rural Mathews County,

Virginia. Their residential group homes provide housing services to adults with intellectual

disabilities while their day support center and transportation fleet offer day support and

transport services for adults with intellectual disabilities.

The organization maintains ten residential group homes located across four locations,

each offering the comforting atmosphere you would find in any neighborhood. They also

provide in-home care as well as recreational activities.

AHRC NYC

support the goals set forth by each person's Person Centered Plan. Working closely with

community organizations, this program also offers volunteer opportunities that enhance

participants' skill development.

The Foundling

Inspired by a true tale told to the author by her grandmother, The Foundling is a

captivating historical fiction book set in a eugenics asylum. The narrative follows Mary

Engle, an eager young staff member at Nettleton State Village for Feebleminded Women

of Childbearing Age.

Although set over one century ago, it remains strikingly relevant today. The characters

demonstrate attitudes about women that have had such an influence in shaping our

modern society.

Readers will discover that this book tackles themes including love, loss, trust, loyalty and

power; while also touching upon issues related to racism, poverty abuse exploitation. A

must read for anyone interested in history or the human experience!

HeartShare

through programs that support greater independence through education, health care,

employment, life skills training and case management services. Its programs aim to

promote greater autonomy through education, health care, employment opportunities and

life skills instruction as well as case management services.

Respite activities offer respite to families overwhelmed by caring for a loved one with

disabilities, while transition services assist individuals as they make the difficult leap from

early childhood to school age and then onto adulthood. Furthermore, OPWDD also

assists people with disabilities pay their housing costs through its housing subsidy

program.

The Hourly Waiver Respite Program

Respite care allows family caregivers the time they need to take care of other obligations,

travel or simply relax. Respite can be provided both at your home or a community site

and voucher programs may offer discounted respite services in their region.

Heritage Christian offers freestanding respite care by the hour or overnight for people

enrolled in OPWDD's Home and Community Based Services Waiver (HCBS). Guests can
