What happens at the first meeting
Students and parents or guardians usually attend the intake appointment together, though this is not required. We talk through our service recommendations and the costs, and you tour the apartment complex and the residences where our students live.
The application can be completed at your leisure before your tour. This information helps our staff customize the individual service plan (ISP). All information in the electronic database is kept confidential.
