This additional 40 unit apartment building on Montgomery Road in Kennedy Heights created an additional living option. LADD's purpose then and now remains the same, to provide people with developmental disabilities the opportunity, through education, to acquire the competencies that will assist them to live and be accepted as valued members of the Cincinnati community. At this location, LADD provides services to thirty adults in either a group home setting or an apartment setting. In the group home, eight people live together learning daily living skills that will eventually help them be successful in the community. There is a total of three group homes on Victory Parkway which serves twenty-four people.
Qualified staff support each home on a daily basis.
In addition, six people live in apartments at this location which are supported by a staff person who maintains frequent contact with each person. People living in this type of arrangement need minimal contact from staff. In both the apartments and group home settings, the program is designed to be transitional, as people will eventually be moving on to reside in the Cincinnati community. Deb Easley, LADD Residential Administrator, is available to answer any questions, 861-5233. Community Services Program LADD offers the option of supporting people in apartments located throughout the Cincinnati community through the Community Services Program.
