Developmental Disability Services

Congregate Residential
Waiver Services

Congregate residential waiver services consist of training and assistance or specialized supervision for individuals with a diagnosis of intellectual disability or developmental disability, provided in a 24-hour licensed or approved residential setting considered to be the individual's home. This enables the individual to acquire, improve or maintain his or her health status as well as to develop skills in activities of daily living and safety in the use of community resources. Services emphasize a person-centered approach that empowers and supports each individual in developing his or her own lifestyle to become a valued member of society.

In-Home Services

PCS provides intellectual disability/developmental disability in-home services to individuals through a variety of funding sources. Our In-Home Program provides supports that enable individuals who live at home to be safe, heathy and enjoy living in our community. Our Direct Service Professional (DSP) staff strive to encourage independence and provide individualized services (which may include training, assistance, and support in daily living and house living as well as participation in community integration activities) based on the individual's person-centered plan.

Intermediate Care Facility

ICF services are provided 24 hours per day in a supervised residential setting to individuals 18 years or older with intellectual disabilities who are Medicaid eligible. The individuals may exhibit medical and/or behavioral support needs. These services are provided through an interdisciplinary team composed of a medical director (24-hour coverage), nurses (24-hour coverage), dietician, psychologist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, physical therapist, social worker, special educator, recreational therapist, QMRP and direct support professionals. Individuals receive wraparound services using the concept of active treatment.  

ID Support Coordination / 
Case Management

Our child/adolescent unit serves individuals from three to 17 years old, and our adult unit serves individuals 18 years and older. Services include screening, community integration, collateral contacts, developing individual service plans (ISP), linking to community supports, locating needed services, assuring coordination of services, monitoring service delivery, advocating for individuals, transition planning, monitoring health status, monitoring eligibility for ID/DD waiver services and providing case management.

Psychosocial Rehabilitation
Services (PSR)

Psychosocial Rehabilitation (PSR) is a comprehensive day program designed to empower adults aged 18 and older in their mental health recovery journey. PSR is committed to prioritizing the mental well-being of each individual while fostering an environment that reinvigorates outlooks and transforms lives.  Our daily activities include:

• Independent living skill development

• Psychosocial education

• Health and wellness initiatives

• Interpersonal/social skills development

Through PSR, individuals have the opportunity to cultivate their talents and reconnect with family, friends, work, education, and community life.  For PSR, recovery transcends being merely a goal – it is a reality.

Early Intervention

The Early Intervention Program provides supports and services to infants and toddlers who are not developing as expected or who have a medical condition that can delay normal development. Services are provided from birth up to a child's third birthday. Service coordinators focus on supporting parents and other caregivers in understanding how to help children learn during daily routines and activities.

The purpose of early intervention for children is to enable young children to be active, successful participants in a variety of settings during the early childhood years and in the future, including at home with their families; in child care, preschool or school programs; and in the community.

The purpose of early intervention for families is to enable them to provide care for their child and to access resources they need to participate in their own desired family and community activities.

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is the federal law that includes provision for early intervention services and provides the guidelines for delivery of these services.
