24-Hour CILA Program
CTF believes that adults with developmental disabilities deserve equal opportunity in the communities where they live. To help achieve this goal, CTF provides as close to a natural home environment as possible integrated into the community. These Community Integrated Living Arrangements (CILAs) offer 24-hour supervision and assistance by staff trained in a DHS-approved curriculum. Each of the 23 CILAs is home to 6-8 individuals with developmental disabilities.

CTF offers a person-centered planning process by which services are tailored to the needs of the individual. Each resident works to improve their daily living skills, money management, community integration, vocational opportunities, and other skill areas. Occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech and language development, and behavioral programming are also available. A Qualified Human Services Professional (QHSP) and CILA Supervisor oversee each CILA, and nurses are on call 24 hours a day to provide monitoring and follow-up for medical needs.

Intermittant CILA Program
Individuals who qualify can live on their own and receive services as needed from CTF through the “Intermittent CILA Program.” Through this program, adults with mild developmental disabilities live independently in a home or apartment, sometimes with one or more roommates. CTF provides case management, training, and assistance to the individuals so they can maintain and further develop their independence. Services provided to these individuals by CTF staff typically include transportation, assistance with medical needs, making and keeping appointments, grocery shopping, paying bills, and similar activities.

Home-Based Services
For children and young adults who live at home with their families, CTF offers home-based services and supports. Direct Service Personnel from CTF are matched to families based on experience and compatability, and spend an average of 15 hours per week providing supervision, instruction, and guidance to help the participant develop skills and move towards independence. Active treatment is the focus, and typical examples include behavior management, goal setting, living skills development, and community integration. A QMRP also provides overall case management and supervises the Direct Service Personnel.
