Mission Statement
Progressive Careers and Housing provides an array of social and life services focusing on individual enrichment, growth and independence for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
About This Cause
Progressive offers residential services to individuals ages 18 and older with intellectual and developmental disabilities via 16-bed facilities and CILA (Community Integrated Living Arrangement) homes. All homes have round-the-clock staff that assist residents with their daily needs. Homes are attractively decorated in a manner that reflects the needs, performance, abilities and sensitivity to cultural needs for all residents and blend into the communities of which they are a part. We are committed to providing a home-like atmosphere that fosters community presence, participation, choice and respect. Our staff work to promote happiness and well-being among the residents, ensuring that each individual can have enriching relationships, be part of community life, increase control over their life and develop competencies to help them accomplish their goals. Progressive's daytime Developmental Training Program includes vocational training and assistance, activities designed to enhance growth and development, encourage self-care and enhance the ability of individuals to engage in the community. Other services offered include speech and occupational therapy and educational programming, nursing and behavioral health services. Special programming is provided to meet the needs of people with autism and senior citizens. Our Northern Illinois CILAs are located in Country Club Hills, Hazel Crest, Park Forest and Sauk Village. Our Southern Illinois ICF and CILA locations include Aviston, East Peoria, Mount Vernon, Pana, Sparta and Taylorville. Developmental Training facilities are located in Country Club Hills and Flossmoor, Illinois. Residents and day program attendees enjoy a variety of enriching activities such as yoga, music therapy, physical fitness activities, arts and crafts and community outings. They look forward to many special events such as holiday parties, bingo nights and our annual summer barbecue.
