How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Holistic Respite Care for Sustained Community Livingmethodology: respite_care_modelBy providing respite care in a home-like environment for developmentally disabled individuals, the organization supports caregiver well-being and prevents burnout, thereby enabling longer-term home- and community-based care because rested caregivers can sustain high-quality support.
- Self-Directed Support Modelmethodology: self_directed_supportBy enabling developmentally disabled individuals to self-direct their services through a financial intermediary, the organization increases personal autonomy and tailors support to individual needs, leading to more effective and dignified outcomes because control over one's care enhances engagement and well-being.
