This service supports a Member’s choice to live in and access opportunities in their communities through services offered in a family-based home. Members living in Vendor Supported Developmental Homes receive a variety of interventions designed to maximize their independence, including, but not limited to: habilitative therapies, skill development, behavior intervention, sensorimotor development, and coordination of habilitation services. Members are supported by paid caregivers, called Developmental Home Providers, who offer family-like services to meet their needs in a Developmental Home of their choice. A Vendor Supported Developmental Home enables Members to live in a family-like setting and have their needs met in a holistic way. Members who live in Developmental Homes receive consistent support, so that the Member can choose how they spend their time and can make informed choices. The vendor will be their advocate, teach them life skills, and make a positive impact on their lives. Rising Star Behavior Health offers placement for both Child Developmental Homes (CDH) and Adult Developmental Homes (ADH). If you are interested in becoming a Developmental Home Provider, contact us at info@risingstaraz.com or 602-814-4693.
