AHRC - INDIVIDUALIZED SERVICES AND ENHANCED SUPPORTED WORK

Individualized Service (Day Habilitation Without Walls) : Individualized service follows a person centered plan as developed with the individual as the primary participant, the family and a team of professionals. Activities and services emphasize those outcomes a person has chosen. Service begins from the person’s home and continues through the day. The individuality of each experience is supported by a staff member who is dedicated to the path which leads to the attainment of each outcome. Day Habilitation Without Walls provides services to individuals with developmental disabilities over the age of 21 who reside in all five boroughs. Service sites located in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and the Bronx.

E-SEMP – Enhanced Supported Employment: Enhanced supported employment services are designed to allow individuals to work toward work goals. Unlike regular supported employment, enhanced supported employment is designed to allow flexibility in development of the individual employment outcomes and affords individuals with significant barriers the opportunity to work in the community. Time and duration of staff support is flexible. The goal of the program is to assist in identifying and securing customized work opportunities for each person that match his or her skill set, interests, dreams and desires. E-SEMP provides services to individuals with developmental disabilities over the age of 21 who reside in all five boroughs.
