Mission: To support people with disabilities to live a rich and meaningful life. We vision our employees to feel valued for their contributions and aspirations and feel confident in their ability to provide resources, expertise or direct support for people with disabilities. Fidelity house is earing trust and inspiring hope.
Programs: Residential services provides opportunities for small group living in 20 community residences and independent living in local apartments. The goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where each individual is encouraged to be as independent as possible. Direct service professionals provide as little or as much support as needed. Attention to medical care is paramount. Our clinical and medical employees get to know each individual, monitors all medical treatments and make sure that daily care is tailored to each individual's clinical and medical needs.
