AS SUCH, WE OFFER A DYNAMIC SCOPE OF RESIDENTIAL SUPPORTS THAT VARY IN GOALS AND WHICH ARE GEARED TOWARD THE NEEDS AND DESIRES OF HUNDREDS OF DIFFERENT MEN AND WOMEN. FOR INSTANCE: OUR GROUP HOMES PROVIDE UP TO 24 HOURS OF SUPPORT EACH DAY. THESE SUPPORTS MAY INCLUDE REHABILITATION, NURSING, BEHAVIORAL SUPPORT AND DIRECT SUPERVISION BY STAFF. FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY REQUIRE MORE INTENSIVE TREATMENTS WE HAVE MORE SPECIALIZED RESIDENCES THAT PROVIDE ENHANCED MEDICAL CARE TO THOSE AGING WITH DISABILITIES. FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE ABLE TO LIVE MORE INDEPENDENTLY, WE OFFER SUPPORT IN INDIVIDUAL HOMES AND APARTMENTS. THESES SUPPORTS ARE OFFERED FOR AS LONG AND AS OFTEN AS NEEDED, WITH THE FLEXIBILITY REQUIRED TO MEET A PERSON'S CHANGING NEEDS OVER TIME. SOME PEOPLE REQUIRE AS LITTLE AS TWO HOURS OF SUPPORT PER WEEK. IN 2013 WE PROVIDED COMMUNITY-BASED RESIDENTIAL SUPPORTS TO MORE THAN 500 PEOPLE ACROSS CONNECTICUT AND NEW YORK. WE OFFER SERVICES RUN BY COMPASSIONATE AND HIGHLY-TRAINED STAFF, NURSES, THERAPISTS AND OTHER SPECIALLY-TRAINED CLINICIANS TO PROMOTE HEALTH, WELLNESS, PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL NEEDS. FURTHERMORE, WE HAVE INCORPORATED INNOVATIVE METHODS OF CARE-INCLUDING THE STRATEGIC INTEGRATION OF TECHNOLOGY INTO HOUSEHOLDS- TO ENHANCE THE AUTONOMY OF THE PEOPLE WE SERVE IN A COST-EFFECTIVE MANNER. IN FACT, THE COST OF THE SUPPORT WE PROVIDE IS LOWER THAN STATEWIDE AVERAGES. IN 2013, ABILITY BEYOND CELEBRATED SOME MILESTONES IN RESIDENTIAL CARE. THESE INCLUDE THE EXPENSION OF OUR PROGRAMS TO SERVE YOUNG ADULTS WITH MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES, WITH SUPPORTS GEARED TOWARD MEN AND WOMEN REFERRED FROM DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES AND THE DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH AND ADDICTION SERVICES. SPECIFICALLY, WE OPENED SEVERAL NEW RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMS, INCLUDING HOMES IN DANBURY AND BRISTOL. THE SUMMER OF 2013 ALSO MARKED THE ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF ABILITY BEYOND'S MERGER WITH INTERLUDE, A DANBURY-BASED NON-PROFIT AGENCY THAT PROVIDES SERVICES FOR PEOPLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES. WE ARE PROUD TO REPORT THAT OUR DECISION TO MERGE WITH INTERLUDE HAS RESULTED IN THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS TO THOSE WE SERVE: - OUR DANBURY-BASED CONSUMERS NOW HAVE ACCESS TO YEARS OF COLLECTIVE PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE, FACILITY AND TECHNICAL RESOURCES FORMERLY UNIQUE TO THE TWO ORGANIZATIONS. - FORMER INTERLUDE STAFF NOW HAVE ADDED SUPPORT THROUGH AN ENHANCED HUMAN RESOURCE INFRASTRUCTURE. - THE MERGED ORGANIZATION IS REAPING THE BENEFITS INSTITUTIONALLY FROM WIDER PROSPECTIVE DONOR POOL, ENHANCED PRESENCE IN THE COMMUNITY AND BETTER ALLOCATION OF FINANCIAL RESOURCES AS DUPLICATE FUNCTIONS ARE ELIMINATED. ABILITY BEYOND HAS ALSO TAKEN MAJOR STRIDES TOWARD ADVANCING ITS WORK TO HELP PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AGE WITH DIGNITY. IN MAY OF 2013, WE BROKE GROUND ON OUR CUTTING-EDGE RESIDENCE IN BEACON, N.Y., WHICH WILL SUPPORT 14 PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES WHO ARE AGING AND MEDICALLY FRAIL. THE HOME IS THE FIRST OF ITS KIND IN NEW YORK, AND REPRESENTS THE VANGUARD OF COMMUNITY-BASED CARE AS THE STATE SHUTTERS ITS RESIDENTIAL INSTITUTIONS AND BEGINS MOVING PEOPLE INTO ENVIRONMENTS THAT ARE MORE FAMILIAR AND APPROPRIATELY EQUIPPED TO MEET THEIR EVER-EVOLVING NEEDS. THE PROJECT HAS ALREADY GENERATED RECOGNITION IN OUR FIELD, AND OUR TEAM HAS BEGUN TO SHARE BEST-PRACTICE MATERIALS. 8190860 8375767 INDEPENDENT LIVING: EVERY PERSON, REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITIES OR DISABILITIES, DESERVES A SAFE, AFFORDABLE AND COMFORTABLE PLACE TO CALL HOME. FUTHERMORE, INDEPENDENT LIVING IS A FUNDAMENTAL WAY TO ACHIEVE EMPOWERMENT AND TO EXERCISE ONE'S RIGHT TO MAKE MEANINGFUL PERSONAL CHOICES.
