Developmental pathways Reviews

The beginning was nice.they wanted me to prove that he still had down syndrome. Downsyndrome lasts for life. my son had the flu and couldnt show up. I texted the women hired by our case manager Pam. We informed her we couldnt make it to therapy and she showed up anyways and accused us of not being committed. Awhile later We came back and then canceled services during covid because online wasnt working out for us but they have no record of it. They now want us to do another intake. Worked hard to get ces waiver and they didnt help after that.

Good leadership and staff that really care about helping folks with disabilities. They partner with a lot of community organizations around Arapahoe & Douglas counties & the City of Aurora. Many ways to get plugged in!

It all went well when working with the Intake personnel; delightful to say the least.
I want each of you to read this and understand it...in order to get the Waiver you have to have so many points and in that system, comes just this..it is what has happened to my grandson and what is continuing that they do not tell you about.
In order to get enough points, although he is NOT autistic...has a couple of mannerisms that would suggest same and his neurologist would tell everyone the same, we had to declare him totally autistic. With that done, we had already signed forms and goals of his becoming totally independent to live with either a roommate of by himself. We were told, "oh, that does not matter, we understand that he is pretty far advanced towards being independent." Lie #1

So this statement is in the records, now read closely and program this for you will not want to go through what the grandson is and myself.l.

Eventually, they will take the SS away from the family; not happening here, I will pull him out of the program first. When I get done here you will see that it is a big bunch of graft to takeover your child's life. Here we go: The Waiver does this: you have to list every asset that your child owns and the value..that means bracelets, DVDs, CDs, tablet, phonograph, shoes, shorts, shirts...you name it, you have to list it! If that is not enough..then you have to tell them each and every time you buy something, right down to a hamburger or box of feminine hygiene! Let us go on...chart when one gets up, goes to bed, when one goes to the toilet, on and on and on! They ask, "do you know how to use the toilet, do you know how to wash your hands and dry afterwards, do you know how to dress yourself..." you have to tell them if there is a savings account, how much, where, trust fund, foundation that serves your child; last, but not least is the fact that they will not allow your child, if capable which my g. son is - just about fully independent in many ways - except like keeping a better house/clean; cooking, etc. buying their own groceries if in a host home/that violates SS law...no one can tell a SS/SSI recipient how to spend their money..it is theirs...they can suggest but that is where it ends; not even a Payee can do that...it is a horrible experience for someone that is able to do 70% of everything for themselves; in CO. where my grandson is..they are rude after you get past intake and I truly think stupid...all the paperwork is so they can keep a job. Be sure you read and understand this: he has several pages of a book like list of things he has to do, cannot do, etc...one of those is. you get a gift, you have to report it; we choose your doctors, keep going, list all of your personal clothing..that is above I believe but I forgot to add this little piece of critical information which I believe is totally illegal..the note says...all assets, that means clothing and all become the property of Pathways! Don't fall for their greed! Don't fall for their communistic efforts to take all you or your child have.

Then they tell you they provide transportation...that they do but it is not reliable if you live or need service more than four miles; I could go on and on... I am hopeful the grandson will post again and very soon; it is hell what they put you through pure hell...they try to take the Payee out, take the SS, POA they try to oust and much, much more...beware...

These services have been stressful, dramatic, and unhelpful for me as a parent with a hard of hearing child. I feel their intervention program is intrusive and unnecessary. I requested a change in my services and now I experience no help from them at all.

I have had nothing but positive experiences with Developmental Pathways. Lots of fun community events for my kids, plenty of financial support, a great case worker. All-in-all a wonderful agency.

They have helped us very much with our son. They are always available. Great follow through in regards to services. The staff has always been very friendly.

worst place to work with you have to tell lies in order to get any help at all you pretty much have to be worthless and they have turned against my grandma and wont talk to her and pathways put me through danger at two guys house i stayed at and got tossed like a shoe im going to get out of the program and i think pathways is one sided people
and im not dumb like the reports that they do
whould not recommend this program to anyone and i whould not trust pathways or live in there homes there more like group homes

Best support for your special needs family members.
