The JCHAI At Home program
is the innovative, award-winning, individualized support program that provides highly skilled social workers to train members with intellectual disabilities and autism who are in their own apartments anywhere in the Philadelphia metropolitan area or living with their families to live and work independently.

JCHAI At Home highlights include:

• Offering help in securing employment and when necessary, liaising with employers to help maintain employment.
• Transitioning from living with parents to living in independent apartments.
• Creating exciting socialization opportunities through excursions and activities that bring together JCHAI At Home, Transitions and residential members, creating an instant social group for all members.
• A network of volunteer opportunities that provide peer interaction for members and help them to learn to work with each other and in the community.
• A customized plan for each member to achieve independence.

JCHAI provides services in a nondiscriminatory manner, without regard to race, sex, color, national origin, ancestry, religious creed, disability and age.
