Reach for Resources

This year, Reach is raising funds for our Semi-Independent Living Services (SILS) to help adults with developmental disabilities achieve the highest level of self-reliance within their community. We work with individuals and their families to provide support for each person’s specific needs and goals. Through SILS, we help adults with a wide range of services including: preparing meals, employment skills, budgeting, bill paying, daily living skills, health/hygiene, safety, self-advocacy, grocery shopping, obtain/maintain housing and socialization.

Hanna is an organized, intelligent and ambitious young adult who sings in a glee club, volunteers at the library, attends dance class, interns in the neonatal intensive care unit at Children’s MN and enjoys hanging out with her friends. However, when it comes to cooking and cleaning tasks, Hanna needs some guidance. With the help of donor funded assistive technology that provides step-by-step directions with pictures on completing household tasks and a Community Living Specialist from Reach, Hanna is able to live more independently.

All donations up to $5,000 will be matched thanks to Ken Nash in memory of Mary Ellen & David Kaul. Click here to learn more about Mary Ellen & David Kaul.
