"This authoritative resource helps answer many questions about designing and maintaining successful community residences. It discusses management issues on all fronts, including administration, staff training, liability, financing, evaluation, and safety ... areas that will dictate the quality and stability of a residence from the start. Backed by research and years of practical experience, nationally recognized authorities share their knowledge of the critical day-to-day operations of various types of community living alternatives. Plus, they discuss the long-range planning required to ease the transition to community residences for persons with developmental disabilities. With all its valuable information, Community Residences makes it possible for program directors, staff trainers, agency board members, and clinicians to say with confidence that community living for persons with developmental disabilities is here to stay!" -- Back cover.
