rrIf you are interested in applying for residential care, please familiarize yourself with our program first.  Due to the specific nature of our program type, not all individuals will be eligible to apply.  Our primary goal is to insure that each prospective resident is a good fit for our program and that includes a thorough assessment process and trial period whereas, individuals will be assessed in multiple areas of functional and emotional coping skills.  We are a specialized program for individuals who cannot live successfully in a lower level of care for a variety of reasons. Our goal is client success!

Applicants will be evaluated on the appropriateness of our program based on the following criteria:
              The individual:
1.        Has a developmental and co-occurring psychiatric disability;
2.       Resides in El Dorado, Sacramento, or another adjacent county; or placement is funded by Regional Center;           (EDC residents will receive priority over non-EDC residents)
3.      Can achieve individual service goals;
4.      Is between the ages of 18-30 years old;
5.      Can have personal care needs met with 1:3 staff/resident support;
6.      Is medically stable;
7.      Has cognitive ability to participate in the program;
8.      Is eligible for Social Security Disability Income and is considered "low income".
