        <Explanation>Adult Services - Meeting the long-term needs of adults with severe mental retardation/intellectual disabilities is an ongoing issue. Unlike mental illness, mental retardation is a lifelong disability. - Families/Caregivers need day program resources for their loved ones so they may maintain employment or obtain needed respite from 24 hour care. - Historically, Dallas Center has served the most severe of this population -individuals requiring 24 hour a day supervision, assistance with basic independent living skills and with little or no vocational potential for employment in the community. - Day program services for this population are extremely limited. Most providers of adult services focus on persons with intellectual disabilities capable of employment training, leaving few options for some of the most fragile in our community. SENSORY/THERAPEUTIC program provides intensive sensory stimulation and individualized therapy - while monitoring specific medical needs. ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING emphasizes functional living skills, attention span and appropriate behavior. WORK ACTIVITY CENTER provides training for the acquisition of prevocational skills and behaviors. WORKSHOP provides prevocational training in a supervised environment while individuals perform and are paid for subcontract work. Each program component is under the direction of a Program Manager. These Program Managers have professional degrees in applicable fields. Multiple staff work under a Program Manager. Consultants (physical therapy, music, art, dance) are degreed, licensed/ certified per state regulations. Service Provision: Individualized services are provided within the determined program component with other individuals enrolled. All services include: - Assessment of individual strengths and weaknesses, functional level and needs. - Development of individualized training plans focusing on individual needs. - Implementation of individualized training plans daily. - Analysis of progress on training plans with modification/revision as warranted. - Provision of opportunities for music, art, physical fitness, socialization and leisure time activities for enriched quality of life. - Provision of extended hours based on family need. Dallas Center served 163 adults with significant intellectual disabilities. The cost of this program in FY '10 was $867,643.</Explanation>
