Community Habilitation
This program works towards increasing independence, while focusing on 2-3 specific goal areas the individual would like to improve. Each individual is assigned a one on one Com Hab Specialist (or CHS) they work with on a weekly basis. Typically the CHS would work with their individuals 2-3 times per week, totaling anywhere from 2-15 hours a week (depending on approval from OPWDD). The main purpose of their time with their CHS is to work towards the goals they have set for themselves, while increasing independence in all areas of their lives, and receiving support and assistance from their CHS. Three of our most common goals areas: Socialization, Overall Health and Wellness and Money Skills." This program is available in Cattaraugus and Allegany counties.
