Sawtelle Adult Residences<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We Offer a Client-Centered approach to adults in need of assistance with daily life skills so they can lead fulfilling, enriching lives
\nin their communities…<\/b><\/p>\n

YCS Sawtelle Residences provide intensive behavioral interventions in permanent, home-like environments for adults with acute developmental and intellectual disabilities (including autism spectrum disorders) and co-occurring behavioral or medically fragile conditions..<\/p>\n

\u00a0YCS currently serves\u00a0approximately\u00a090 individuals in 18 single-family homes or apartments across the state.\u00a0Every individual has his or her own bedroom and participates in self-selected recreational activities at the home and in the community.<\/p>\n

Sawtelle Residences give family members peace of mind knowing that their offspring are learning how to control their behaviors in a safe, caring, nurturing environment while learning new skills and participating in life-enriching experiences.<\/p>\n

\n

“It\u2019s all about respect and taking the time to truly understand what an individual is trying to say. When a resident feels valued, they will blossom and challenging behaviors will fade.”<\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Every Sawtelle Home reflects the group\u2019s unique interests <\/b><\/p>\n

Together, the Sawtelle staff and residents plan a robust schedule of activities based on individual likes and preferences. At one home, individuals enjoy horseback riding each week; another Home offers yoga instruction, while residents at a third Home look forward to visits from a therapy dog twice a week. Some sites like to take trips to the movies, others prefer movie night at the home.<\/p>\n

And, who doesn\u2019t like to eat out? It\u2019s a special time that all the residents look forward to at least twice a month. Consensus has it that a favorite spot for all is a buffet.<\/p>\n

Caregivers and extended family are invited several times a year to YCS Family FUN days. It may be a summer BBQ with water games or a trip to the bowling alley. Many sites also celebrate holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving with the families.<\/p>\n

At several sites residents practice their favorite dance moves, songs or other talents for a joint annual talent show.<\/p>\n
