Our programs
Our mission is to help adults with developmental disability live a fully-realized life
We achieve our mission through a simple process that is designed to give maximum independence to an individual without sacrificing necessary, structured care.
01
Identify needs
We meet with individuals and their caretakers to identify needs and abilities, ultimately creating a plan for building an independent, fulfilling lifestyle together.
02
Find the right placement
After our initial assessment, we identify the programs and living situations we offer that best fit the needs of the individual and work to get them acclimated to a new routine.
03
Ongoing Support
We continue to support individuals as they adapt to their new program or living situation. Families often report significant improvement in their relationship because the stress of full-time care is relieved.
Our Programs
Residential Services
Residential Services: TVDSI aims to align the needs and desires of individuals with suitable and independent living environments. This implies a focus on understanding and catering to the unique requirements
and preferences of each person, with the ultimate goal of providing a living arrangement that promotes independence through a comfortable and safe living environment. TVDSI has two living settings available: Supported Living and Independent Living.
Supported Living
The goal of supported living is to provide a variety of supports and services for those individuals requiring 24 hours of staff supervision.

The goal of independent living is to provide supports and training as needed while establishing programs to maintain independent living in the community.
Day Services
