The Sponsored Homes program trains potential caregivers to provide Medicaid and DBHDS compliant residential services in a Sponsored Home setting, including training in medication assistance, first aid, crisis intervention, and human rights. We also inspect and supervise the homes providing services and provide regular oversight by QDDPs once an Individual is admitted to the program. Our team strives to assure each Individual accepted is able to live in the home that best serves their needs, desires, and fully promotes their integration into the community. All staff, Sponsors, and Substitute care providers are subject to full background checks and regular reviews.
In 2020:
88 individuals with developmental disabilities were residing in Sponsored Homes in their communities rather than in an institutional setting.
Over 85% of those Individuals have been with the program and the same, stable caregivers for two years or more
Over 85% of all Individuals served have shown increased independent living skills in at least one area every year they have been in the program.
