Description
The residential program is the primary support provided by Cumberland. We match each individual without a disability with a person who has a disability and they share a home and receive supports. CCO as a whole is responsible to ensure that all residential supports are provided. This includes supervision and assistance, transportation, teaching and learning oppportunities, assistance with goals, health and safety and all other issues that come up in daily living. CCO believes community integration and living in a community of choice is of utmost importance. Individuals with disabilities should not be segregated or housed in segregated environments. Individuals with disabilities are provided the supports to have the equal opportunity to live in the community of their choice. Companion supports provide a more family-like living arrangement and give the individual with a disability more freedom over his/her life and the activities he/she wishes to participate in.
