Community Living

Kreider Services has 27 group homes located in Dixon, Ashton, Amboy, Franklin Grove, Stockton, Galena and Rock Falls. 170 people with varying degrees of disability live in these homes. People who are deaf, blind, and have developmental disabilities live in the three Rock Falls' homes. In our homes in Dixon and Amboy, we serve people who are medically fragile or have other special needs. Capacity ranges from four to sixteen persons depending on the size of the home. All homes have 24-hour supervision with staff trained according to standards put forth by the state of Illinois. Staff helps persons with disabilities live as independently as possible in comfortable community settings. Areas of training include learning to take care of physical needs, housekeeping and laundry, cooking and learning to safely access the community. We strive not only for community access but also for true community integration. People with disabilities attend the church of their choice, take classes and volunteer to help with community organizations. Our homes undergo surveys from state agencies as well as the Commission of Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). CARF staff survey programs all over the United States to ensure compliance with established standards of excellence. Kreider Services, Inc. consistently scores very well on these surveys.
