Reaching Visions Today was established in April 2001 to provide quality support and services to persons with disabilities. The goal of our program is to aid individuals in securing residential placement in the community of their choice and to facilitate their participation in community life. The goal is accomplished in conjunction with the individuals’ Circles of Support by developing individualized support plans that truly identify the person’s vision for the future and by employing staff to support individuals in obtaining outcomes toward meeting those visions.
We have had much success in helping individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities to live in the community and a safe secure environment with caring staff. RVT also provides Personal Assistants to help families who have persons with disabilities in their homes. We are very thankful to provide quality care and staff to assist families whose disabled family members live at home.
