Narrative

The residential supports strive to provide opportunities for people to become involved in recreation, leisure and community activities, such as doing physical recreation, attending religious services, participating in community organizations, vacationing and more. BCL respects ethnic and cultural diversity and encourages individuals to embrace that diversity at home and in the community.

BCL consumers represent a population with a wide variety of needs. The agency relies on consumer and family input for the design of all residential supports. Our agency is committed to the national trend that promotes designing supports based on the needs of the individual being served by those supports. The residential supports also provide nursing and psychological assistance when needed as well as individual community supports and respite care.
