Services
At Not Forgotten Home & Community Services, we work with individuals to aid in the development of all ability levels. We provide a variety of services to promote a holistic life so that each individual can prosper.
Home and Community Habilitation Support (Hab)
Work, social, and recreational activities play an important role in the lives of all people, including adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Activities enable the development of social skills and personal relationships that foster a sense of community and provide enjoyment to daily life.
In-Home and Community Support is a direct care service provided in the home and/or community settings. The goal is to assist participants in acquiring, maintaining and improving independence skills necessary to live, work and play in the community while participating meaningfully in community life.
Services consist of assistance, support and guidance (physical assistance, instruction, prompting, modeling, and reinforcement) in the general areas of self-care, health maintenance, decision-making, home management, managing personal resources, communication, mobility and transportation, relationship development and socialization, personal adjustment, participating in community functions and activities, and the use of community resources.
Companion Services
Companion Services are direct care services provided to participants, who live in private homes with their family and/or caregiver. This service is intended to assist the participant to participate more meaningfully in home and community life. This service may be provided in-home and community settings, including the participant’s competitive employment workplace. Staff is responsible for providing supervision or assistance, designed to ensure the participant’s health, safety, and welfare.
Companion services are used in lieu of In-Home and Community Support when a habilitative outcome is not appropriate or feasible (i.e. when the professional providing the service mainly does activities for the participant or supervises the participant, versus assisting the participant to learn, enhance or maintain a skill). Companions may supervise, assist, or even perform activities for a participant that include: grooming, household care, meal preparation and planning, ambulating, medication administration in accordance with regulatory guidance and socialization.
Residential Services
A safe, welcoming, comfortable place to call home is essential to living a life of independence. We have a number of beautiful homes within our community conveniently, located in desirable neighborhoods. While structured differently to best meet individual needs, as well as to comply with state regulations, all of our homes offer high-quality services, with the shared goal of supporting individuals to thrive at home and in the community.
These broad ranges of activities that occur in a participant’s home include, but are not limited to, personal care, cooking, interaction with housemates, developing relationships, participating in the ISP, budgeting and banking, activities in the community, etc.
R.E.A.C.H. Program
R.E.A.C.H., brought to you by Not Forgotten Home and Community Services, is an Independent Living Skills Day Program designed specifically for adults with intellectual disabilities. We are seeking participants who are willing and able to learn and practice daily independent living tasks.
Our goal is to help participants gain the skills needed for greater independence within a supportive and engaging environment. Participants develop practical, hands-on skills, including daily exercise in our on-site gym to promote physical fitness. The program also features a fully equipped apartment where individuals can practice essential tasks such as laundry, food preparation, and household maintenance.
In addition, participants gain real-world experience through community outings that build skills in diverse settings. The program offers opportunities to practice basic office skills, explore creative activities like gardening and plant care, and engage in wellness workshops that emphasize personal growth and well-being.
Our mission is to empower each participant with skills that foster independence, self-confidence, and a sense of accomplishment.
