Mission Statement
For over 60 years our organization has provided person-centered services to the most vulnerable individuals in our communities-those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, behavioral and mental health disorders, those with addictions, and those who are homeless or have been homeless. Horizon House works in partnership with individuals, their families and advocates to provide comprehensive, community-based rehabilitation services. We create environments where hope, choice, and empowerment reside and all individuals are supported in reaching their own highest potential for independent living.
About This Cause
Horizon House helps those who desire to live independently and be fully engaged in their communities. We offer community-based supports in three areas: Behavioral Health, Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, and Homeless Services. At Horizon House it remains our goal to advocate for vulnerable adults who may be homeless, individuals with intellectual disabilities, individuals struggling with behavioral health and their families. We will continue to respond to the evolving environment with innovative approaches to provide comprehensive, community-based services, while providing all with the opportunity to live “an abundant life”. At Horizon House, we take a holistic approach to the care and treatment of each person we serve. A forerunner in the field of community-based treatment and rehabilitation, we combine recovery with integrated approaches that address an individual’s psychiatric, medical, and behavioral health needs. Our interdisciplinary teams apply their experience and expertise to address a wide range of treatment and rehabilitation issues in a coordinated, comprehensive, and continuous manner. Horizon House offers a full range of therapeutic, home and community-based services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Services are designed to help individuals manage their lives and engage in the community by addressing individual interests and needs. Our community integration activities provide rewarding experiences through planned outings to restaurants, movies, shopping, art fairs, and more. Horizon House recognizes the personal and societal tragedy of homelessness which can result from mental illness and/or substance abuse. Our Homeless Services assist individuals find a path to recovery by developing goals that support self-determination, self-sufficiency, and re-entry into the community where they can lead productive lives. Horizon House offers an array of Homeless Services throughout Philadelphia, Chester, and Delaware counties in Pennsylvania. Our continuum of services ranges from outreach to case management, to permanent housing support. We partner with individuals by helping them obtain appropriate and necessary treatment, rehabilitation, and stable housing. With support, they acquire independent living skills, obtain employment or benefits. We seek environments which allow each individual to use their strengths to make choices, feel success and satisfaction. Our Values We Value People We believe people should be treated with dignity, respect, fairness and consideration in environments that are safe and comfortable and that support individual advancement. We Value Growth We believe that personal growth is promoted through attention to present strengths and not past weaknesses. The development of community supports and resources enhances the quality of life. We Value Diversity We believe that an atmosphere of mutual respect for each other’s differences adds quality to our services and is essential to the rehabilitation process. We Value Shared Ideas We believe that listening is a crucial part of effective communication and that consumers should actively participate in their service planning. We Value Advocacy We believe that everyone is responsible for bringing about the change necessary to benefit those we serve to the fullest extent. . . .and believe services must be available as long as they are needed.
