Judson Center's Wayne Regional Office provides the following programs addressing children at risk, disability support and family preservation:
Recruiting and training individuals and families in order to place children with loving, caring adoptive families who can best meet their needs.
Recruiting and training families to provide temporary foster homes for children separated from their biological parents due to abuse, neglect, abandonment or death in the family.
Programs designed to prevent children from entering into foster care, shorten lengths of stay in foster care, and help reunite families after an out-of-home placement.
Rose Kennedy Respite Care provides temporary relief by providing parents and caregivers with a much needed break from the day-to-day stresses that come with caring for a family member with a disability. The 12-bed respite home serves children between the ages of 6 and 17 who are medically fragile or have a developmental disability - including autism, mental illness and mental impairments. In addition, Judson Center's Rose F. Kennedy Respite Center also cares for adults who are medically fragile, have developmental disabilities, mental
illness or impairment, or who suffer from a traumatic brain injury.
Bringing employers together with qualified workers and provides job support for adults with developmental disabilities.
