 REHAB is always willing to look at alternative living situations that best suit an individual's needs.
The goal of REHAB's residential program is to assist individuals to attain independent living situations whenever possible. Services provided focus on learning living skills such as money management, cooking, shopping and accessing public transportation. The residential program fulfills the needs of individuals with varying degrees of ability through different housing options. Supervision of all living situations is based on the ability of the individual. We currently serve 89 individuals in various settings.

We have several homes (IRA's) of different sizes throughout the local community. Residents are provided with 24 hour supervision to assist them with improving their independent living skills.
