Unless
special arrangements are made, you will attend a day program or
job site for at least five (5) hours each day, and two hundred forty
(240) days per year. The day program will provide transportation
for you.
The director of the home
will make certain you are kept busy and active while in your day
program. The director of your home will meet with people working
in your day program to make certain you are working on goals that
meet your needs. Some of the goals you will work on in your day
program may be the same ones you will work on in your home.
If you receive a paycheck,
you will receive help on depositing your check, and managing your
monies. If you live in an ICF/DD, and make $20.00 or more during
a month, the Illinois Department of Public Aid requires you to pay
a portion of your cost of care. The director of the house will let
you know each month if you need to send in a check to help pay for
your room, board, and care.
