Treats Falls House provides residential and nursing care to seventeen adults with intellectual disabilities who have challenging medical, physical and/or behavioral needs. Our experienced and highly skilled employees provide these progressive and specialized services in order to maximize each individual's potential with an emphasis on health services, community inclusion, and skill building.

Residential supports enable adults with intellectual disabilities to live as independently in the community as possible. This is enhanced by a growing use of technology, providing remote access to support staff. Both Assisted Living homes as well as Shared Living living models are utilized.

Community Ties (CT) and Community Connections (CC) provides day habilitation support needs. CT is based in Penobscot County while CC is in Aroostook County. Both programs are designed to meet each individual's needs and give them the best opportunity to succeed and thrive. This includes skill-building and therapeutic-based programs, fitness, social opportunities and a variety of community activities that promote individual health, spirit and self-esteem to the fullest. Staff work with individuals to increase or maintain their ability to successfully engage in inclusive social e3ngagement in varied community environments.
