PROGRAMS : Eden II/Genesis Model :
Residential Services Program |
 |
 |
|
Community-based
residential placement is at times a
solution for families, who for
whatever reason, can no longer meet
the extreme supervision and support
needs of their son or daughter with
autism. Eden II recognizes that the
specifics of certain family
situations make the demands of
caring for a child with autism (of
any age) impossible to meet. |
| |
|
Skill development in
residential sites is focused
on promoting those abilities
necessary for increasing
independence - daily living
skills, communication,
socialization, etc.
Residents receive the
support necessary to
participate in whatever
their community has to offer
- restaurants, parks,
volunteer services,
religious services,
recreation and leisure. |
|
|
|
Group Homes and
individual residential
alternatives are offered for
teens and adults with
autism. These adults and
teens access either the
school or the adult day
program as well, receiving individualized behavioral
services 24 hours a day, 7
days a week, etc. |
|
Family continues to be an important part of the team, and partnerships with the families is sought and fostered. |
