We currently have fifteen Adult Family Homes, seven supportive apartments, and an adult day program located at our corporate office. We also provide DHS 83 training for our staff.

 

Our Mission

Options offers a broad range of services to adults with disabilities. Our homes are staffed around the needs of the consumers and someone is available to residents at all times to assist them with any needs they have. Options is committed to helping residents achieve the maximum level of independence both at home and in the community. Residents are encouraged to learn new skills and take part in community outings of their choice.

Choices are what Options is all about, hence our name. It is our belief and experience that individuals of any background thrive when given the opportunity to do so and choose for themselves. Many of our residents attend day programming outside of the home, and Options offers in-home day programming as well as its own day program located at the corporate office. We will make arrangements for any medical and mental health needs as well as any other services needed. We are dedicated to serving the whole person.
