At Avana, we offer compassionate, Medicaid-approved services that support adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities (ID/DD) and autism –at home and in the community.
At ‘Avana’, we provide exceptional community-based services for adults with intellectual disabilities and autism. Our services are designed to enhance independence, promote safety, and support families.
Our In-Home and Community Supports service helps adults with ID/DD or autism live independently and meaningfully at home and in the community.
Our Respite Services offer short-term, temporary support to individuals with ID/DD or autism, giving caregivers time to rest or manage other responsibilities while ensuring the individual’s safety and well-being
Our Skilled Nursing Services support individuals with medical complexities in home or community settings. Services are delivered by licensed practical or registered nurses
At Avana, we proudly serve individuals with Intellectual Disabilities and/or Autism (ID/A) who are enrolled in an approved ID/A Waiver through Pennsylvania’s Office of Developmental Programs (ODP), including the Consolidated, Community Living, and Person/Family Directed Support (P/FDS) Waivers. To access our services, individuals must be eligible for and enrolled in one of the ODP’s ID/A Waivers. If you or a loved one are not yet enrolled but may qualify, we can help connect you with a Support Coordinator to begin the process.
You can live life on your terms — safely, confidently, and as independently as possible, whether at home or in the community.
