Admissions

​Everyone is different. Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities are no exception. We all have different likes, dislikes, interests and hobbies, learning styles, etc. Why should there be one program that every individual should have to fit into? Why not create an individualized program for each individual? At Possibility Place we will do exactly that.

 

Each participant that is accepted into our program is evaluated and an IPP (Individualized Program Plan) is created and placed into action. This offers the highest chance of success and the greatest benefit to the individual.

Admission Criteria

1.  A primary diagnosis of Intellectual Disability or Autism.

​

2.  Applicant must be at least 18 years old.

​

3.  Applicant must be independent in self-care skills.

(eating, toileting, etc.)

​

4.  Applicant must be mature enough to be able to interact appropriately with the other adults in the program as well as staff and volunteers.

​

5.  The applicant's physical and cognitive needs must be manageable enough to not require one-on-one assistance or exceed our ideal 7:1 client to staff ratio.​

​

6.  Applicant has had a medical examination within 6 months prior to admission which shows the applicant is free of acute, chronic medical problems including communicable diseases.

​

Additional Information:

Unfortunately, at this time Possibility Place cannot approve applicants in need of nursing care or individuals who are emotionally disturbed, physically or verbally aggressive, or are unable to control their behavior.

 

All participants who are accepted are given a 60 day probationary period to see if Possibility Place can meet the needs of the individual. If both parties agree that it is a good fit, families are asked to make a one year commitment.

 

Possibility Place admits individuals of any race, color, religion, national and ethnic origin to all programs and activities.
