Balancing support and independence for quality living

BALANCE’S MISSION

Balance is an organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for persons with developmental disabilities.

We provide services to individuals that promote and respond to their personal goals, desires, needs and dreams. We strive to empower each individual in determining the direction of his or her life.

Our services enhance the communities’ capacity to understand and embrace persons with developmental disabilities. We are committed to provide services which maximize individual potential, while acting as prudent stewards of our resources.

OUR SERVICES

The services Balance provides are developed in response to the needs of the community. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for persons with developmental disabilities. We provide a continuum of services and supports that enable individuals with developmental disabilities to live independently and to actively participate in their communities.

We work with the care management organizations in this region, the IRIS program and private funding. Individuals and families interested in the services we provide can work with their care manager or IRIS consultant or can contact us directly to learn more.

INDIVIDUAL SERVICES

As we strive to use resources efficiently by matching the support with the individual, we need to be creative in our service approach.

Balance also provides the following services:

Services are based on the individual needs of the participants we serve. Referrals will be given as needed
Balance has provided consultations to schools seeking to enhance the skills of their students in order to prepare them for adult life.

ADULT FAMILY HOMES

We have several adult family homes operated by Balance in Ozaukee County. Each individual is assessed, placed and monitored based on their individual needs. The care we provide includes all activities of daily living. Each individual benefits from unique supports necessary to meet the complex care they require. Balance focus on small group homes ensures a high staff to participant ratio.

Chris Fraser Celebrates 20+ Years of Community Supported Living

On January 8, 1994 Chris Fraser moved into his first apartment in Cedarburg. A few months later he moved into his current apartment in Port Washington and has lived on his own ever since.

At the time some were skeptical about whether this arrangement could work. But with Chris’ determination, support from Balance and his community his dream became reality. Chris is an involved member of his community, congregation and is an inspiration to many.
