About this organization
Mission
Abbott House builds lasting foundations under children, families and adults with complex needs. We support nearly 2,500 children in foster care and unaccompanied immigrants, adults with developmental disabilities, and struggling families in the New York Metropolitan area and the Hudson Valley by providing safety, promoting healing and restoring hope. The heart of our work is dedicated to helping human beings recover from deep trauma or intervening to minimize trauma in the first place. Our vision is to make promising futures a reality.
About
Schedule O - Services for people with developmental disabilities. Abbott House currently provides services to over 100 individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities. We have 16 residential programs (15 individualized residential alternatives and 1 intermediate care facility). Our homes are located throughout Westchester and Rockland counties as well as the Bronx. Our homes provide a caring and safe home-like atmosphere with round-the-clock supervision from highly trained and dedicated staff. Abbott House operates two community-based day habilitation programs. The focus is for every individual to be a meaningful member of our community. We volunteer at local fire departments, animal shelters, and deliver meals on wheels. Our day programs are designed to offer an array of exciting, diverse opportunities encompassing health, well-being, recreational, and social activities. Abbott House implements programs and activities to enhance lives and offers a self-advocacy program. Self-advocacy allows the opportunity for individuals to speak up for themselves as well as an avenue for showing support for peers. It supports the right to make life decisions without undue influence or control. The program teaches individuals about their rights and responsibilities and ways to protect their rights. These skills and the opportunity to 'be heard' build self-confidence and enrich the lives of those participating. In 2019, 149 individuals were served by the program. 50% of individuals with developmental disabilities in our supervised homes have successfully increased their independence in the home as well as in the community so they can enjoy a more individually-driven life. Our clinical team analyzed behavior data and strategically faded restrictions to increase self-determined living by 40%. Abbott House received approval for a new day program to support 13 additional individuals with complex needs.
