Program accomplishments

  • Supported Living (0208 Medicaid Waiver) services are aimed at building independent living skills to adults with developmental disabilities living in their own home or with their family across southeastern Montana. The result of these services are individuals who are actively contributing to their communities and relying on less services over time. DEAP considers serving all individuals with 0208 Medicaid Waiver funding that choose DEAP as their service provider. This program is supplemented with fundraising efforts.
    Expenses $593,561 · revenue $793,721
  • The Early Intervention (Part C/Family Education and Support and Occupational Therapy) program provides service coordination, education and coaching to families with a child who has an assessed developmental delay. The result of Early Intervention services is children who need less specialized support and families who have the capacity to advocate for their child throughout their lives. Part C is an entitlement program and both Part C and FES are funded through Federal and State funding and supplemented with fundraising efforts. Services are delivered in home across 26 Montana counties.
    Expenses $698,252 · revenue $1,044,802
  • DEAP's Autism program provides intense applied behavior analysis training to children with an autism spectrum disorder through their 19th birthday delivered by Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and a team of Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT).

    Expenses $322,883 · revenue $187,848
  • Lifespan & Alzheimer's Respite: DEAP administers this program throughout the state of Montana.

    Expenses $191,685 · revenue $216,691
  • Chafee Program: Reunification services provide coaching to individual families who are working with Child Protective services to better the situation for their children. Building capacity in parenting and living skills is the result of this program delivered through State and Federal funding and the use of donated funds. Services are provided in homes, communities and offices across southeastern Montana. Independent Living services are provided to foster youth venturing into adulthood. This service coaches youth ages 14-21 on how to balance a budget, apply to a college or trade school, buy a car, rent and furnish an apartment and handle emergencies that may come up. The result of this work are community members who are stronger and more empowered to make better choices than the generation before them. This program is delivered throughout eastern Montana with funding from federal and state grants as well as donated funds.
    Expenses $31,126 · revenue $36,736

    Expenses $49,159 · revenue $59,970
  • Vocational Rehabilitation: While working with Vocational Rehabilitation and Blind Services (VRBS), DEAP employs Community Rehabilitation Providers.

CRPs provide services that lead to successful employment in the chosen vocational goal of the VRBS client. The CRP program is funded through Federal and State funding and supplemented with fundraising efforts. Services are delivered across 17 eastern Montana counties. DEAP also provides Extended Employment services to individuals who have graduated from Vocational Rehabilitation and are gainfully employed.
