Background Statement
HISTORY
Horizons was established in 1975 as a community-based alternative to institutionalized care. We prioritize providing person centered services.
127 children and youth, 77 adults, and 106 families were served last year by Horizons programs throughout Grand, Jackson, Moffat, Rio Blanco, and Routt counties.
PROGRAMS IN BRIEF
Early Intervention is for infants and toddlers who have a developmental delay or disability. Services are provided by a Speech Therapist, Occupational Therapist, or a Physical Therapist depending on the child's needs. Early Intervention services are totally free to the family and are available throughout our entire service area.
Family Support offers funds to reimburse families for approved expenses associated with the care of a family member with a delay or disability.
We offer an array of residential and supported living services for adults with IDD. They can also participate in Day Program which promotes computer, math, reading, writing, cooking, and life skills in large and small group settings.
