By June 2000, Rainbow Acres will have filled the Social Services Coordinator position. The coordinator will ensure access to the necessary resources that will support Ranchers and their families, especially during significant changes, crises or adjustments in a Rancher's life, which may have long-term implications over her or his lifetime. Initially, services will be on-site, with referral to outside professional services as needed or as desirable. Ranchers' needs for services will be assessed by Caregivers, the Ranch Nurse and observations of Rancher family members. Special Olympics Rainbow Acres Ranchers are enthusiastic and competitive Special Olympics Athletes.
