Programs That Promise Success COMMUNITY SERVICES RESIDENTIAL SERVICES Living More Independently Even as an 18-year-old, Denise knew it would be a challenge to be more independent and to manage her emotions. With the support of her family, she made the move to the Rising Ground Glover residence for adults with Intellectual / Developmental Disabilities. Now 22, she has learned skills that help her make decisions for herself. She’s getting on-the-job training in the Pre-Vocational Training program, working in the café, doing maintenance work, and delivering mail to offices. She has improved judgment, is better at dealing with her emotions, and has learned to acknowledge more quickly when she has made a mistake. Living more independently now, Denise is happy with her progress.
