Welcome to Helping Hands Inc!
Helping Hands, Inc offers services for families and individuals impacted by Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities. Our goal is to maximize the individual’s skills and abilities to his or her fullest potential. We do this by offering supports for successful integration into the local community, as well as assisting each individual in living their best everyday life with value.
Our Programs
Our programs are designed around each individual’s needs and implemented in the least restrictive environment for the safety and well being of the individual. Our programs encourage individuals to grow in self-assurance and respect while enjoying their rehabilitation, residential, vocational, and recreational experiences.
Community Homes
Helping Hands currently has six community homes. Our residential program is designed to offer families the comfort and security of knowing that the unique challenges their loved ones face are being met in a warm, caring, home-like setting. Not only are residents’ medical, dental, and health requirements accommodated, but also all specialized nutritional needs.
Social Recreation Programs
Our Socialization and Recreation Program is ever-expanding and always open for new suggestions. With activities such as swimming, bowling, movie nights, sleepovers, sporting events and more, we strive to provide adequate socialization for Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.
Summer Camp
Our Camp / Shore Summer Program provides an age-appropriate socialization experience for anyone over the age of 18. The first four weeks of the summer are designated as ‘Camp’ weeks, which cater to those individuals who would prefer a structured, summer camp type of atmosphere. The remaining 7 weeks of the summer are designated as ‘Shore’ weeks, providing a vacation-like atmosphere.
