Adult Residential Services   

We provide many different types of residential services to people with Developmental Disabilities.
Our programming meets the individual needs of the consumers we support. Some homes offer intensive staffing and others operate on more of a supported living model. Staff in particular homes receive specific training relative to the needs of the consumers they support. Level of care provided by support staff may involve assistance with daily living skills, medication administration, personal care, and community integration. Staff training may include specialized medical care, diet management, behavioral management and mental health issues. Staffing patterns and schedules suit the needs of the consumers in the home.We pride ourselves in having homes that are comparable to other private homes in the neighborhood. The homes themselves are comfortably furnished, nicely decorated, well maintained and devoid of institutional elements.

We have homes throughout our cachement area, as far north as New Gloucester, as far west Buxton and as far south as Saco. Each program has a full time Program Manager to provide oversight and clinical suppothrough Friday. Management and clinical oversight to Managers is provided by a team of Administrators. Some homes are set up to assist young adults transitioning from adolescence and school life to adulthood and employment. Others support a geriatric population and provide special care for their needs. Some homes are mixed gender and others serve either men or women.

 All consumers are encouraged to participate in vocational pursuits, day habilitation, and in recreational offerings by the agency and the community. We support persons with a variety of diagnoses including Autism, Down Syndrome, Prader Willi Syndrome, Angelman’s Syndrome and Cerebral Palsy. We also support persons with acute mental health issues and challenging behaviors. We have successfully supported consumers who have experienced challenges with the criminal justice system.
