We're Here to Help

Our mission is to provide a better quality of life and encourage greater independence to individuals with developmental disabilities.

What We Do

We meet of our mission every day by providing our clients a place to work, a place to call home and a community in which they can experience success.

Services are funded by our resale store operations where many of our clients are employed.

Residential Services

EARC | Workshop in Edmond, OK

 

At EARC we understand each individual client’s needs. We’re happy to provide services for our clients who do not require 24-hour care but still need support in some areas.

Our staff will assist with transportation, grocery shopping, laundry, medical appointments and leisure activities. Assisted Living clients also have access to EARC staff in cases when the primary caregiver may be at work or have other obligations.

Daily Living Support

EARC operates six Daily Living Support (DLS) Homes in the Edmond and North OKC area.

DLS homes offer 24-hour care and house up to three individuals. DLS clients are responsible for their own expenses and gain essential experience with budgeting and money skills.

EARC | Workshops

Group Homes

EARC operates two Group Homes in Edmond, one for men and the other for women.

Clients in EARC Group Homes learn independent living skills while still having the assurance of 24-hour care.

Six clients live in each Group Home, learning skills such as household chores, meal preparation and money management.

Community Integrated Employment

EARC | Job Placements

Through our Community Integrated Employment program, clients obtain individual job placements in the community with the assistance of an EARC job coach. Some of these placements require one-on-one support, while others only need transportation assistance to get to and from work. EARC proudly employs individuals as greeters, cashiers, dock/driver assistants and janitorial staff.

We extend our sincere thanks to the Edmond community for employing and supporting EARC clients in local businesses.

What We Care For!

The Trails Sheltered Workshop

The Trails Sheltered Workshop is a facility which allows individuals to learn work skills and to receive a paycheck through center based pre-vocational training. EARC clients at the Trails Sheltered Workshop perform important work for our thrift stores, which helps ensure the store’s success. Clients sort and prepare donations we receive for display in our thrift stores. Local businesses also provide contract work for our clients to perform.
