Supported Retirement Services is developing, implementing and evaluating services and supports to assist older adults with developmental disabilities in preparing for retirement from employment programs. Families, friends and direct care staff will receive training and assistance with supporting retirees involvement in self-determined recreation opportunities. As a result of increasing the community’s capacity to meet the needs of these consumers in generic services, it is anticipated that a number of adults with developmental disabilities on the waiting list will receive employment services.
