COMMUNITY SUPPORT

Contact: Bonnie Newhouse bnewhouse@charterinternet.com

Disability Network helps coordinate the many different supports people with disabilities need to live as independently as possible.

Tailored to the individual, these supports may include:

  • Case management of all services, supports, and/or treatment
  • Job training and supervision for supported employment
  • Community living supports to increase or maintain self-sufficiency
  • Counseling and/or mental health care
  • The transportation services key to success in education, employment, and community participation
  • Guidance for individuals and families evaluating housing options
  • Respite services for caretakers
  • Information for families planning their child’s transition to adult services, Social Security application, guardianship, wills and trusts, and other adult issues
