High School to Community Based Supports
Working in collaboration with individuals, professionals and the area school districts, LSS provides supports within the school and community to assist individuals in a smooth transition from high school. We work with each individual’s team to develop, implement and meet each person’s individual goals. We find that, with support, this is a very exciting time for young adults, as they transition from the life of school to the adult community.
Vocational - We offer career planning, resume development, internships, supported employment, naturally supported employment and volunteer options. All are based on the individual’s strengths and interests.
Educational - Tutoring and support to attend classes at area learning institutions.
Residential - Simulated dormitory style living under the supervision of a Dormitory Director, Companion Roommates, and Enhanced Family Care situations.
Safety Training - Many individuals transitioning from school to work or college require continued education around personal and community safety. Through pre-teaching, role-playing, networking, and teaching in natural settings, our professional staff help to prepare you for situations you might encounter when on your own.
Transportation - While we offer support in learning to use local public transportation, we also provide support for securing alternatives.
Health - LSS professional support staff will assist you in accessing health care through your regular doctors, as well as provide you with support to administer doctor ordered medications, diets and other prescribed treatments.
Social - Depending on your interests, we offer you support to get and stay involved within your community.
Recreation/Leisure - New Hampshire offers an array of opportunity for recreational and leisure activities within the community. Through networking and keeping abreast of what is available within the community we are able to offer choice to individuals, based on their particular interests. Within the home, we also offer an array of activities and support to maintain and expand on ones interests and skills.
