Home, Housing and Community Opportunities
Thursday, November 2, 2017 from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Presented by: Anne Murphy, LMSW, Director of Housing and Development
Anne Murphy, Wildwood Programs Director of Home and Housing Development, will discuss the types of residential and home supports available, how to access services through the “Front Door”, and the new continuum of services that are available through OPWDD, which range from traditional agency-led supports to self-directed supports. Information will be provided on the benefits of partnership between family, individual and service provider and the advantages of a Circle of Support. Anne is well versed in environmental modifications and assistive technology and can offer suggestions about securing funding and practical uses of technology in the home. Please contact Anne Murphy at amurphy@wildwoodprograms.org if you have specific topics that you’d like her to address during this workshop.
