Give a brief overview of the proposed program, identifying the unmet <br />human service need that this program will address and the specific <br />target group to be served (handicapped, elderly, low—income, etc.) <br />This program will provide training, therapy, education and incentive <br />programs to developmentally disabled children and adults. <br />There is no program in Indian River County to serve the developmental <br />disabled citizens that provides training, education, therapy and incentive <br />programs enabling these individuals to obtain their maximum potential. Clients <br />will receive those services identified in their habitations and indivivalized <br />education plan. These services will be monitored yearly and documented on an <br />ongoing basis. Skills will be improved as a result of services through this <br />grant, thereby improving the lives of developmental disabled people. With <br />these funds more clients will be served as well as more services will be <br />available particularly in the areas of therapies and job readiness. This <br />grant will improve the total program which we offer a client. <br />2. Specify the number of unduplicated clients to be served and the number <br />of services to be provided. (These figures must match the totals indicated <br />on page 3 of 7, section C). <br />This program will serve approximately 65 developmentally disabled children <br />and adults. <br />3. Indicate any other program in your agency or other agencies in the <br />community which provide similar services. Explain how you will <br />avoid duplication of services. <br />Clients and their families are referred to supportive services, as needs <br />arise. When a client develops necessary skills he/she will be transitioned <br />into work -oriented, independent living programs, public schools or programs <br />for non -handicapped individuals. Duplication will be avoided by on-going <br />monitoring of the clients being served. <br />4, will these grant funds be used to match a federal or other grant? <br />Yes No y_ If yes, identify the type and amount. <br />
