Caring for a loved one with Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities (IDD) or neurodiversity can be overwhelming. You want your loved one to be someplace warm, caring, and familiar which gives them the opportunity to live their best life and maximize their potential. But the system is a relentless obstacle. Confusing waiver programs, endless red tape, predatory programs, and financial strain are landmines that every family in the system worries about. And it seems that guidance which is both highly qualified and genuinely caring is rare.
Need a clear path for your adult with IDD? RiseUP guides you through Medicaid, offers Family Caregiver pay, residential supports, community day programs, and job readiness—customized to your loved one’s goals.
RiseUP surrounds children with IDD in two family-style group homes, a specialized facility school, and expert support for the difficult transition period between 18 and 21yrs—helping them grow, graduate, and step confidently into adult services.
