Community Services works with a number of families who are working with residential
service providers for the first time, even though their family members are adults.
Prior to coming to CCS, some of our consumers lived at home. They come to CCS
when they are ready for more independence, and CCS helps them find specialized
living arrangements. Their parents and family members remain constant in their
lives and spend time with them, as any family member would with their adult family
members. Some of the consumers in our DD program are kids or are adults who live
at home because that is what works best. CCS Support Services to
DD Parents may include:
Regular telephone, email or mail communication from a Family Consultant or
Supervisor
Invitations to important meetings or appointments that affect our consumers
Invitations to
attend special events or activities
In-home supports for consumers, including one-on-one skill training,
companionship and transportation
Respite care
