Reach is a “people first” agency providing people with an array of choices, services, supports, and opportunities.
Reach complements the dignity, respect, and self-worth of each person, providing services based on individual needs and preferences.
These services may be provided in a small group home, or a group home with up to five other people. We tailor each home to the people living in that home.
Our residential services include awake nighttime staff, 24-hour-a-day nursing availability, and a dietary consultant. Staff assistance is provided to each individual based upon their specific needs. Our homes are located in a wide range of locations, therefore, allowing a choice of city dwellings, or small town comfort.
Reach makes every effort to accommodate special requests, preferences, and lifestyle choices. Each home is truly home, a regular home in common neighborhoods, a comfortable setting with personal touches, relaxed routines, and home cooked meals, where friends and family are always welcome.
