Mission: Arise's mission is to work with people of all abilities to create a fair and just community in which everyone can fully participate. As an independent living center (ilc), arise promotes the full inclusion of people with disabilities in the community. Arise is dedicated to furthering the independent living philosophy: the belief that people with disabilities have the same rights as people who do not have disabilities. We are at the forefront of advocating for access, choice, and self-determination for individuals with disabilities.
Programs: The consumer directed personal assistance program (cdpap) empowers individuals by providing them with greater control over in-home personal care. Cdpap gives consumers the flexibility to choose the person who provides their home care services on a schedule that fits their lifestyle. Approximately 382 people were served.
the community habilitation program helps people with developmental disabilities learn, improve, or maintain independent living skills both within the home and in the community. Approximately 298 people were served.
child and family services provides mental health support to children and their families, and adults in onondaga and oswego counties. We provide services in multiple locations (clinics, schools, neighborhood centers, medical practice locations) with the goal of increasing access for those in need. These services are licensed and certified by the new york state office of mental health. Approximately 1,806 people were served.
other advocacy and support programs serving the needs of people with disabilities include employment services, medicaid service coordination, and independent living.
