TURNING DISABILITIES INTO CAPABILITIES
Hear about PARC!
PARC helps children and adults focus on what they can do, rather
than what they are unable to do.
Children and their families receive early intervention services from an interdisciplinary team including teachers, social workers, nurses, behavior analysts, and therapists. Services can be given on the PARC campus and at the child's home.
For adults, PARC embraces a “person-centered” approach that allows staff to assist PARC participants in making their own choices. PARC staff also work with individuals who are important in the participant's life, such as family members, guardians and friends. Participants can actually design their lives -choosing what they would like to do, where they would like to live and where they would like to work.
These effective services help the children, youth, and adults who receive PARC services and their families improve their quality of life in the simple everyday experiences that make up all our lives.
PARC promotes a high level of support and services for each individual for over 40 programs. Attention to each client's individual needs ensures they receive the highest quality care. Our children and adults are valued and appreciated as unique individuals and it is their personal goals and desires that keep us focused on our Mission.
