Transitions Centers is celebrating our 15th year of providing quality services to neuro-diverse individuals on Cape Cod. To help celebrate our birthday, as well as raise some money that will help support our Mission, we are selling this limited-edition sweatshirt to our supporters.
With the support of Latham Centers, our parent company, Transitions Centers was created on June 13, 2008, with just four Members and two staff. At that time, TCI was just a Day Habilitation Center. In October 2008, TCI added Supported Employment as another TCI program offered to the people we serve. We currently serve over 100 individuals in Day Habilitation, Supported Employment Services, and Individual Support Services. Our goal is to improve the lives of neuro-diverse people and give them the skills to make them as independent as possible in the real world. Our focus is quite simple, to work with each individual so that they have increased competence and confidence in the community.
Transitions Centers maintains an exceptional relationship with the Department of Developmental Services, Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission, Massachusetts Commission for the Blind, CORD, and other related providers. We have received four consecutive three-year certifications from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) since our inception which indicates our efforts in striving for continuous quality improvement for the individuals Transitions Centers serves.
Transitions Centers is:
• A place where individuals fit in and are mentored as well as challenged.
• A place where they work towards achieving their goals with support and understanding.
• A place where everyone makes good friends, works on social anxiety, gets the sensory input they require, and work towards being as independent as possible based on their individual needs and desires.
In order to create the environment that we envision, we work to recruit the best in the business: individuals with experience, compassion, dedication, and the ability to think "outside of the box," and who like to collaborate in a Team approach. Since our inception, we have been successful in this endeavor and now offer Day Habilitation Services, Employment Services, and Individual Support Services to individuals who meet the eligibility criteria. Characteristics we look for in attendees include:
• Individuals who have goals or have the desire to develop goals that will enable them to become as independent as they can be.
• Individuals who want to attend our program. We do understand that for some this may be a new and anxiety-provoking experience and we will support individuals through this transitional period.
• For Day Services: Individuals who can safely function and participate on-site and in the community in group sizes of up to 7 with one staff facilitating.
• For Employment Services: Individuals who have the desire and motivation to be competitively employed and who can eventually work without day-to-day job coaching and support.
• For Individual Supports: Individuals who have the desire to learn additional skills related to successful independent living.
Our Mission: Transitions Centers, Inc. partners with Members to create a culture that supports community life through individualized programs.
