ADDWC offers a variety of residential
services which promote independent living and are based upon an individual’s
needs. Twenty-four hour supports are offered in a small, group home setting.
Four to six adults share a home that is staffed around the clock. For those who
wish to remain in their own home, staff can be utilized intermittently, or as a
home based support service, to provide training and daily living skills
assistance. All residential services are funded through the Department of Human
Services. To apply for residential funding, you may contact Central Illinois
Service Access at (309) 347-7202.
ADDWC provides training
programs that teach employable skills through group instruction,
demonstrations, simulated workstations, and hands-on learning. Examples of
these skills include regular attendance, attention to task, relations with
supervisors and co-workers, flexibility, and problem-solving. Vocational skills
training participants are given the opportunity to utilize their abilities by
assisting local businesses in meeting their sub-contracting needs. Assembly,
packaging, collating, and janitorial services are among our areas of focus.
