Superimposed and extending over the top, the forearm and hand of Lady Liberty holding her torch. Medium gold color with a heavy black shadow along the right side,the forearm, torch and flame are made to appear as if they are basking in the glow of the rising sun, shining down and from the left.

Case Management

Case management helps people with disabilities to live and participate in the community according to their personal goals, preferences and needs. A primary responsibility of the case manager is to empower consumers to make informed choices about their lives and futures.

Case management services include:

1. Gathering information and developing personal goals

2. Developing the Individualized Service Plan (ISP)
  • Acting as a liaison or broker between the consumer and service providers
  • Promoting self advocacy and encouraging the consumer to put his plan into action to the greatest extent possible
  • Ensuring that the process of following the ISP does not compromise the participant's goals, preferences and needs
3. Overseeing the Individualized Service Environment
  • ensuring that the ISP is effective and helps the consumer to live in the community
  • adapting the ISP, when necessary, as the consumer's needs change, accomplishments occur, or temporary setbacks happen
  • maintaining ongoing contact with the consumer and all service providers
  • advocating or intervening with service providers, when necessary, to ensure that services are provided in a manner that meets the individual's needs and preferences. Our case managers strive to integrate our participants into existing community-based services and are available 24-hours every day by pager to handle emergencies
