Do you accept anyone and are there any restrictions? Anchors must like being in the community, be able to stay with the group at all times, follow instructions, participate in most of the activities, have no elopement, and control behaviors. They need to be bathroom-independent or on a schedule with little to no assistance. When accepted into the program, each Anchor goes through a trial period to make sure the program is a good fit for them and there is also proper staffing to meet all needs. We currently do not have a van with a chair lift, so Anchor must be able to be safely transported to the van and their chair capable of folding up. We have an enrollment committee that goes through and reviews each application. They will reach out to parents with any questions.
When accepted, is my Anchor committed to the entire year? No, it is a month-to-month program, but a 30-day notice is required if your Anchor decides to leave the program.
