United Needs & Abilities focuses on six (6) pillars of enrichment:
- Self-Determination. We belief that our clients can make their own decisions, including those regarding supports, & funding distribution.
- Self-Advocacy. Encouraging clients to speak up for what they need, want, think, & feel, in addition to advocating for themselves more generally.
- Reinforce existing support systems by developing services utilizing the strengths & abilities of families/caregivers to support clients.
- Independent Living aims to ensure our individuals have the ability to choose their living arrangements, while developing new skills and participating in community life/activities of their choosing that aid in their mental & physical wellbeing.
- Employment using each person’s strengths, interests, & skills to support integrated employment, regardless of necessary accommodations.
- Assistive Technology allowing individuals assistance to investigate technology to better meet their needs while increasing independence and become more connected to their communities.
