The association for individual development

My AID case manager Rosa is an angel. She is a ways there for me. I'm getting ready to move into my own place thanks to them

Great activities and workshop options for adults with disabilities.

Tbh I've been with AID for therapy & medication since I was 12 or 13. Eventually found the right therapist and it was literally perfect treatment up until they transferred me to adults. Now it's just been really hurtful. Now, over 2 years my psychiatrist has changed 3 times. I have gone without my medication multiple times, so long I've gone into withdrawal(insomnia medication, so it's KINDA important that I get that when I need it so I can stay in a healthy mindset & sleep cycle for the rest of the week). & this isn't me taking more medication than I need & running out. This is me running out of my month supply and when refills run out it's like my doctor has gone MIA. I call, everytime theres nobody or somebody who cannot help me or give me a nurse who can. I've been hospitalized twice this year, both times inpatient psychiatrists prescribed me the same thing & when I tell my new psychiatrist that this is what they had me on & that it was helping me a lot, she puts me on something else. Something else that has kept me asleep for 12+ hours, more than 3 times.. I'm getting really worried for my own mental health this is night 5 without my insomnia medication and I'm honestly on the brink of a break down. I have panic disorder & not knowing what I'm going to do feeling absolutely drained bc I'm running on 4 hours of sleep is definitely not helping to prevent panic attacks. What's the point of trying to get help & get better when Ive been failed by my own doctors here so many times. Please keep an eye on your patients prescriptions & stop taking patients if you can't keep up with them

I don't recommend this place to the very vulnerable populations they serve

My child has a job coach there. My child goes to church on Sunday and has a weeknight bible study. This is a total of 4 hours per week that she will not work. The job coach was rude anout it and said she wont be able to get a job if she doesn't work at those times. Furthermore she said that my child would have to decide whether she wanted a social life with her friends or a job! When my child filled out a survey and mentioned it, the supervisor came in and in front of the job coach, asked my child to explain. Both she and I did. The job coach DENIED the WHOLE incident saying that she would never say that and she thinks religion is important! I wad there and heard her say those words! They then decided to cross out what my child wrote on the survey which should have been confidential!

A.I.D. IS THE BEST PLACE TO WORK AT FRIENDLY AND BEAMING WITH HELP ALL OVER!!!!!!!!!

Your caseworker will set up an appointmentTo do paperwork, never complete the task!!!!
Waste my time ,it just adds to my PTSD

Worst organization.....managers don't care for the welfare of clients. Always under investigation....somebody needs to clean house there. And pay is pathetic for what you do.
