Independence built through community

Judith Creed Horizons for Achieving Independence (JCHAI) is a multi-faceted organization with cutting-edge inclusive, supportive vocational programs and living options that serves close to 150 people throughout the community.

JCHAI encourages and assists individuals to develop their independence, work skills and daily living skills, while their lives are enriched with an array of opportunities to be active within the greater community.  We are so successful at helping with employment that JCHAI's participants who want to work have a 70% competitive, integrated employment average, compared to the national average for people with disabilities of 34%.

JCHAI offers a range of independent living support services, including a Supportive Apartment Program and JCHAI At Home, an in-your-own-apartment community based service. JCHAI also offers a young adult Transitions Program with classes and outings geared to teach all the skills necessary to live and work independently in the community.

Family members can relax and feel comfortable knowing that their child or sibling is living successfully in the community and continually learning with supports to make it possible. Opportunities for cultural, religious, and social enrichment abound for those who participate in programs with JCHAI.
