HAV-IT Services
Our Services
Residential Services are offered in group homes or community settings and vary according to individual's needs. Services assist and develop self-help, socialization and adaptive skills that improve the person's ability to independently reside and participate in an integrated community. "Residential Habitation" supports people who require ongoing daily support and "Independent Habitation" supports people who need supports on less than a daily basis.
Family Support Services are offered in a person's family's home. This is a family-centered support service based on the person's or primary caregiver's need for support in meeting the health, developmental and safety need to remain in an appropriate home environment. Family Support Services may include parenting support, extended home health care, in-home support and family care option.
Services for people who have a brain injury or autism are available pending HAV-IT's capacity at the time of referral.
