SFCBDD's out of home respite care center is designed to provide 24 hour a day care for a few days to a week.
Journey to Discovery Employment Services
SFCBDD has DMH/DD contracts designed to assist in the complete job location and retention process. The end expectation of services is for the individual to be able to retain employment long term. Staff support is assessed on an individual basis. Long term expectation can range for an individual to work completely independent without support in time, or to have continued one-on-one support indefinitely.
