He transitioned from New England Center For Children in Framingham, MA. The very first person we met from CRI was Rob Kalinowski. It was at that point in time we new we had found the right place for our son! (Rob R.I.P) The first six months of the transition were very difficult time for Gabriel. We worried that maybe CRI might tell us that they would not be able to keep Gabriel. Dr. Paisey and his team which included us, only worked harder. They kept Gabriel safe until he achieved a comfort for his staff and his new home. We thought the next challenge would be finding a day program. CRI searched and decided that they would start their own day program with just Gabriel and three other young adults. Gabriel has done great. The program is designed to teach basic functional skills, with ultimate programming for generalization with community experience components. It offers a number of tasks analyses designed to address skill deficits and teach various “Activity of Daily Living Skills” (ADLS). Today there are thirty individuals that participate in this program. Gabriel loves participating in community activities on a daily basis. Jennifer Garcia who was one of the first aids at Gabriel’s house, transition with him to the day program. Today she is the Program Coordinator at the day program and Gabriel could not be happier. We are very lucky to have found CRI. The staff are professional, attentive and respectful to Gabriel. We work together as one team with the same goals; keeping Gabriel safe, teaching him life skills and providing a lovable home away from home!” Archives Search for: Home Donate Contact Us Apply Now Current Employees Become a Foster Parent Donate Securely with PayPal Choose currency U.S. Dollar Euro Enter amount A SiteOrigin Theme English
