At the heart of Fayette Resources is the residential program.  Individuals with developmental disabilities live with others of like personalities, common interests and similar capabilities in fully staffed homes.  These homes are often referred to as Community Living Arrangements.  The primary goals of this program are:

• to assist individuals in living successfully and independently in the community
• to maximize their skills
• and to increase their ability to cope with life situations

Caring well-trained staff work the individuals to establish routine patterns of every day living that reflect those of the community at large.  These patterns may include organized time for work, leisure activities, chores and even vacations.  Individualized teaching is an integral part of our residential services.  Over time, individuals learn new skills drawn from an Individual Support Plan (ISP), which is a consistent and highly personalized hands-on strategy of staff interactions and instruction.

Areas of concentration may include:

• self care;
• independence;
• social and personal development;
• intellectual and communication skills;
• money management;
• leisure and recreational;
• community awareness, and mobility.

Fayette Resources receives residential placement referrals for prospective individuals from your County Offices or family referrals. Our Program Specialist work with family members, support coordinators and any other interested people to determine the most appropriate home for an individual, and then plan a series of transition activities between staff and the individual prior to admission into our program. This collection of interested parties become the individuals support “team”
