About
SDC currently operates three supervised individual residential alternatives (IRA). IRAs are certified residences under the auspices of OPWDD. SDC has been approved to develop a supervised IRA for 6 individuals with Prader Willi Syndrome. SDC has been an active member of the New York State Prader Willi Alliance and the National Alliance for Prader Willi. The Fieldston residence is a two-family home located on Fieldston Road in the neighborhood of Riverdale in the Bronx. This is home to two certified and supervised IRAs. The first residence is home to four middle-aged women, who were previously residing with their elderly parents. The second residence was developed for four middle-aged men, who could no longer live in their present environment due to various reasons. All of the individuals in the Fieldston residence take advantage of the beautiful setting the home is located in and utilize the community resources available to them. The third residence is located on Sylvan Ave., which is also located in the beautiful Riverdale section of the Bronx. Sylvan is home to eight young-adult to middle-aged men. The individuals in this residence are very active in the community and have grown accustomed to the quiet park-like setting of their neighborhood. SDC is in the development process of a 6 person IRA for individuals aging out of residential schools.
