Because we appreciate the relationships that are developed by being with family and friends, our management and direct support staff work together to help individuals lead comfortable lifestyles in a variety of living arrangements in our local communities. Supports in these homes are designed on an individual basis to foster and maintain independence while enjoying the resources of the community.

24-Hour Supports help assist individuals in all facets of daily living, including the cooking, cleaning and financial planning that keeps a home running well. 24-Hour Supports also aid individuals participating in social and recreational activities, such as going out for coffee or to the movies with friends, vacationing and more.

The Apartment Program currently is comprised of 17 people with developmental disabilities living in Cranston and Warwick. The name “Apartment Program” may a little misleading considering that the individuals supported live in houses or condominiums; the name is used more to signify that these individuals are all very independent, capable and self sufficient.

Each person in the Apartment Program has an individualized plan to help with such areas as recreation, budgeting/finances, medical appointments, cooking, shopping, or any other areas. Most individuals work or attend day services. There is staff support and guidance in the evenings to help with daily responsibilities and to learn skills of independent living skills, and there is access to a supervisory person any time of the day.

Although routine and hard work is needed to live in the Apartment Program, everyone is encouraged to have fun and make responsible choices and learn from the outcomes of their choices.
