Rehabilitative & Community Support Program
Program
Woodfords’ Rehabilitative & Community Support (RCS) Program provides one-on-one support to children with intellectual and developmental disabilities so that they may become active participants in both family and community life. A Behavioral Health Professional (BHP) works with the child in their home and/or community on specific goals to increase their skills in behavior management, communication, independent living, self-care, self-help and socialization. The RCS Program also offers specialized services for children in need of more intensive treatment. In these cases, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) develops the child’s treatment plan and it goals and objectives are based on the evidence-based principles and practices of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA).
Service Area
The RCS Program serves a number of counties in the Central Maine area including Androscoggin, Oxford, Franklin, Kennebec, Sagadahoc, Knox, Lincoln, Waldo, and Somerset Counties; as well as the Greater Portland area in Southern, Maine.
