Frequently Asked Questions

For direct, ongoing supports and services the person must be at least 16 years of age. However, we do offer training and consultation to teams supporting those who are younger than 16 years of age.

Please read our Service Referrals page for information on how to make a referral.

Our Service Referrals page explains our referral process.

Requests for services are carefully reviewed by Shawn McGill, who is the person providing direct support and services to those who are transgender. Please contact us via the website and specific information and guidelines will be sent as it relates to the services provided.

Yes and No. Supports and services can be provided through secure video conferencing. Some particular guidelines and regulations must be followed and are outlined as a part of our intake paperwork. If in doubt, please contact us through the website.

Those who receive our support and services have a specific crisis plan in place, which should be outlined in both the Behavior Support Plan (BSP) and the Individual Support Plan (ISP), if applicable. We stress that we are not a mobile crisis service. Emergency services generally warrant a greater level of care and support such as a county mobile crisis unit or support of other emergency services.

Not necessarily, but we do consider our expertise to be in supporting those with intellectual and developmental disabilities as well as autism spectrum disorders. Therefore we typically ask questions and/or for records that may indicate some learning difficulties or history of traumatic events in the person’s life. For attendance in our groups we do require a diagnosis of intellectual/developmental disabilities, and autism spectrum disorder or borderline intellectual disability. For transgender services this is not required.

There is a specific referral form for our groups. Information can be received by contacting us through the website. Again, any person attending our groups must have a diagnosis of an intellectual/developmental disability, autism spectrum disorder, or a borderline intellectual disability. We want those who attend our groups to feel safe and comfortable in this setting.

Please contact us for a list of pricing based upon the group or class.
