About
THE DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED PROGRAM OF CHILDREN'S AID & FAMILY SERVICES ENCOMPASSES SEVEN GROUP HOME PROGRAMS WHICH SERVE THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. THE GROUP HOME PROGRAMS OPERATED BY CAFS PROVIDE A COMMUNITY INTEGRATION LIVING OPTION FOR THOSE WHO CAN NO LONGER LIVE WITH THEIR FAMILIES OR ON THEIR OWN. THE PROGRAMS AVOID PLACEMENTS IN STATE INSTITUTIONS AND ARE FUNDED BY THE STATE AT A FRACTION OF THE COST OF INSTITUTIONALIZATION. THE PROGRAMS PROVIDE AROUND THE CLOCK STAFF SUPERVISION FOR THE CLIENTS. A HOME ATMOSPHERE IS MAINTAINED AND ASSISTANCE IS PROVIDED AS NEEDED SO THAT OUR CLIENTS CAN FULFILL THEIR DAILY NEEDS AND PREFERENCES. MEDICAL CARE COORDINATION, MEDICATION ADMINISTRATION ARE SOME OF SERVICES OFFERED. THESE PROGRAMS ARE GEARED TOWARDS TEACHING THE CLIENTS HOW TO BECOME SELF-SUFFICIENT IN A NUMBER OF AREAS. MOST COMMON AREAS INCLUDE SOCIAL SKILLS, HOUSEHOLD SKILLS AND DAILY HYGIENE. EACH CLIENT HAS A PERSONAL "PLAN" WHICH IS TAILORED TO THEIR ABILITIES. ALONG WITH THE EDUCATIONAL ASPECT OF THE PROGRAM, COMMUNITY INTEGRATION AND RECREATION PLAY A MAJOR PART IN THE TOTAL SERVICE OF THE PROGRAM. RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES INCLUDE FIELD TRIPS TO MUSEUMS, LOCAL THEATERS AND BASEBALLS GAMES TO NAME A FEW.
