Are you ready to make a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities? Family Partners is actively licensing compassionate individuals and families in Peoria to become Adult Developmental Home (ADH) and Child Developmental Home (CDH) providers. As a licensed provider, you’ll create a safe and supportive home where individuals can thrive, grow, and feel a true sense of belonging.
The licensing process for developmental home providers in Peoria includes a series of requirements to ensure safety and preparedness. This may include age and residency qualifications, fingerprint background checks, medical clearance, and completion of pre-service training.
Licensed providers in Peoria receive compensation for Room and Board, which helps cover everyday household expenses such as groceries and utilities. Additionally, providers are reimbursed for Habilitation services — the direct care and support they offer to help individuals build life skills and independence.
To support balance and well-being, providers receive a daily respite stipend they can use when time away is needed. Respite care must be provided by someone who has completed CPR and First Aid training and, if offering care in their own home, passed a state-approved home inspection.
Family Partners offers ongoing support to our Peoria providers. Monthly home visits and continued training opportunities ensure that you remain compliant with licensing standards and feel confident in your role.
Each provider is paired with a Family Support Coordinator — your go-to contact for both licensing guidance and long-term support. From your first application through every stage of care, your coordinator will be there to assist and encourage you.
