Adult Family Care Program

The PRIDE Adult Family Care program provides an alternative residential option for individuals with disabilities who desire to live in the community with a family. This option is for individuals who want a family placement and would benefit from being with a trained careprovider. Many of these individuals have serious, chronic medical conditions. They may need assistance with personal care such as dressing, bathing, or walking. The placement could be either short term or on a permanent basis. The AFC program will improve the quality of life for the individual while becoming a productive and valued member of their community.
