We believe in change

Our mission is to help individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) live fulfilling and meaningful lives in their communities. We believe that everyone deserves respect, dignity, and inclusion. We also believe that people with IDD have valuable contributions to make to society.

At First Point Employment and Integration Service, we are dedicated to providing exceptional services that empower individuals with IDD to achieve their full potential. We believe in a client-centered approach, tailoring our programs to meet each individual’s unique needs and aspirations.

Here’s what sets us apart:

  • Individualized Service Plans: We conduct comprehensive assessments to understand each client’s strengths, challenges, and goals. This information forms the basis of a personalized service plan that outlines specific interventions and supports.

  • Highly Qualified Staff: Our team consists of experienced professionals who possess in-depth knowledge of ID/DD and a passion for supporting individuals in achieving their goals.

  • Evidence-Based Practices: We utilize effective, research-based practices to ensure the quality and effectiveness of our services.

  • Collaboration: We believe in the power of collaboration. We work closely with families, caregivers, and community partners to ensure a holistic and supportive environment for our clients.

  • Commitment to Continuous Improvement: We are constantly seeking ways to improve our services and adapt to the evolving needs of the community. We conduct regular program evaluations and incorporate feedback from clients, families, and stakeholders.

There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.
