Community Day Services (CDS)

Programs that ensure each participant enjoys a productive, enjoyable day while building skills to enrich their lives. This is done through a variety of options including life skills education, vocational/work skills training, community engagement, and more!

Job Placement

Helps people reach their employment goals by matching individuals to local businesses and organizations to meet their employment needs, providing the community with a dedicated workforce.

Host Homes

Assists people with intellectuals and developmental disabilities in finding a home designed to encourage independence in the least restrictive environment. We match adults of all ages to host families in the communities of their choice.

Group Homes

Allows for the same level of comfort, flexibility, and fun that living at home can afford but with 24-hour support to maximize each person’s level of independence. Residents are able to be active, socialize with their housemates, and take pride in their home.

Supported Living

Individuals seeking the most independent living arrangement may receive I-CILA support through EP!C. This support provides up to 15 hours a week in the individual’s own home or EP!C’s apartment complexes.

Are You Seeking Services?

  • Connect with an Independent Service Coordinator (ISC). You can find your local agency by visiting: https://tinyurl.com/iscfinder. Choose to search services for Developmental Disabilities and then choose the county where the individual resides.
  • Once you are established with an ISC, they will provide a referral packet to EP!C.
  • A member of EP!C’s Admissions Team will connect with the ISC to either request more information, set us a screening, or deny the referral.

If you have any questions about EP!C or the Admissions Process, please reach out to our Admissions Team at admissions@epicci.org.
