Team Facilitation

Our facilitation services provide short or long term life planning & support to children, teens, and young adults with developmental delays or emotional health needs, their families & support networks to assist them to plan most effectively for their futures.  The goal of our facilitation team is to link persons served to basic necessities such as food, clothing, shelter and medical care; as well as, facilitate opportunities for them to further their education, develop friendships, participate in community activities, maintain employment, etc.  Essentially, our goal is to partner with those we serve to link them to resources, which based on their individual interests and needs, improve their overall quality of life.
At Connections, Inc., we strongly support persons with developmental delays & emotional issues to articulate & pursue their dreams.  We believe that each person served has strengths and assets, which make their contributions to their families and our community unique and important.  As such, it is the goal of our facilitation team to maximize these contributions and to facilitate opportunities for persons served to achieve their personally meaningful goals and dreams.

Collaborating with many outstanding community partners who share our vision, we support people through creative implementation of the following services.
