The residential homes provide independent and supported environments where individuals requiring moderate to significant support are provided assistance in meeting their daily living requirements (and more). Staff members work closely with residents to provide opportunities for social interactions and personal growth outside of, and within, peer groups and the community.
Jessica & Friends Pathway Services is a community-integrated day program providing life-long learning opportunities for autistic and intellectually disabled individuals, 18 years of age and older. They currently operate out of two locations; York and Hanover.
