Opportunity for Independence: Empowering Adults with Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities
For over two decades, Opportunity for Independence (OFI) has been a leading provider of services to adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities who require behavioral support. With a focus on individualized care, OFI has established itself as a trusted partner in the disability community.
At OFI, we understand that every person is unique and requires personalized attention. Our relatively small size and low client-to-staff ratio allow us to provide tailored services that meet the specific needs of each individual we serve. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live an independent life, regardless of their abilities.
Our team consists of highly trained professionals who are passionate about helping individuals with disabilities achieve their goals. We offer a wide range of services including residential support, day programs, vocational training, behavioral therapy, and more. Our goal is to empower our clients by providing them with the tools they need to live fulfilling lives.
Residential Support
We offer various residential options designed to meet the diverse needs of our clients. Our group homes provide 24-hour care in a comfortable environment where individuals can develop social skills while receiving support from our staff members. For those who prefer more independence but still require some assistance, we offer supported living arrangements where individuals can live on their own while receiving regular check-ins from our staff.
Day Programs
Our day programs are designed to promote socialization and skill-building in a safe environment. We offer various activities such as art classes, music therapy sessions, cooking classes, fitness programs and more! These activities help individuals build confidence while developing new skills that will help them lead independent lives.
Vocational Training
We believe that everyone should have access to meaningful employment opportunities regardless of their abilities. That's why we offer vocational training programs designed specifically for individuals with developmental or intellectual disabilities. Our job coaches work closely with clients to identify their strengths and interests before matching them with suitable employment opportunities.
Behavioral Therapy
We understand that challenging behaviors can be difficult for both individuals with disabilities as well as those around them. That's why we provide evidence-based behavioral therapy services aimed at reducing challenging behaviors while promoting positive ones instead! Our team works closely with families and caregivers throughout this process so everyone is on board!
Conclusion:
At Opportunity for Independence (OFI), we are committed to empowering adults living with developmental or intellectual disabilities by providing personalized care tailored towards meeting individual needs through residential support systems; day programs; vocational training; behavioral therapy among others which helps build confidence whilst developing new skills necessary for leading an independent life!
