Person Centered
Planning and IIIP (Independence, Inclusion,
Individuality and Productivity) are the theories of
service delivery practiced at Living Resources’
Site-Based Day Hab. Program, which operates 8am-4pm
Monday through Friday, throughout the Capital Regions.
Currently, we have sites in Albany, Schenectady and East
Greenbush. All program activities offer our participants the
opportunity to learn or improve their social skills,
pre-vocational skills, cooperative work skills,
activities of daily living and community involvement.

The individuals
we currently serve range in age from 21 to 71 years and
have a variety of physical, cognitive, emotional and
neurological disabilities. Currently, there are
various types of
staff involved in the various aspects of
care for our program participants, including
habilitation specialists and aides, a speech therapist,
an occupational therapist,
a physical therapist and a program manager.
