Success Stories

Learn About Our Core Services

Alliance of Disability Advocates staff did a Consumer Service Record (CSR) with a new consumer. The consumer told ADANC staff he was interested in organization skills, independent living skills, money management, and some other services. After the CSR, staff immediately started assisting the consumer with better organizing his living space. This consumer was heavily motivated by ADA staff and jumped right in and started cleaning and organizing his living space. The consumer was really excited and anticipated the next meeting to continue his progress.

A TCLI consumer had to be rehoused due to a potentially dangerous environment at his first apartment. Fortunately, our staff met with the consumer and worked with them to find a new home. The consumer told staff they could not be happier with the new place. The new apartment is spacious, and the consumer felt more comfortable having people over. In addition to being located closer to their natural supports, the new apartment is located nearer to potential jobs he’s looking at pursuing.

Second Chances

600,000 people will be released from State and Federal prisons this year. Statistics clearly show that without work, a home, or a path ahead, many will become repeat offenders. Adrian Boone was Alliance of Disability Advocates first Reentry Consumer. This is his experience.
