ADMISSION/ REFERRAL PROCESS
Our admission process starts with the individual, family, or the support Team considering a day services program for the individual. We offer a blend of facility and community-based programs.
Our facility-based program located at Hope Springs Farm in Hershey PA includes community outings to do volunteer, recreation, money management and life-skills activities.
STEP 1. The family or supports coordinator should contact us to set up a tour for the individual their family and any Team members who would like to accompany them to see if Hope Springs Farm would be an appropriate option. You can complete and submit the Program Intake Forms prior to your visit or we can do them when we meet. The Physical and TB test does not need to be completed until they are through the admission panel.

STEP 2. When the Team agrees, the supports coordinator will make a referral and submit the necessary paperwork to the Admission Panel. Typically, the paperwork need includes their ISP/IEP, any current behavior support plans, and anything the Team considers relevant for the Admission Panel to consider.
STEP 3. The Admission Panel will prioritize all interested candidates creating a waiting list based on need and appropriateness of the proposed objectives and goals. The support Team will be notified when a vacancy opens for their individual.
We try to schedule Admission Panel Reviews 4 to 6 times per year, or more when we receive more referrals.
