About The Clifton House

Individuals served by The Clifton House Residential Program live in a variety of circumstances including living in homes of four to six people, or in apartments shared by one or two roommates.  Staffing and other support vary and reflect the unique and diverse needs of the residents. Regardless of whether the support need is casual or intensive, the philosophy of The Clifton House is to assist those served by the organization to access their community, live as independently as possible, and enjoy a life that is rich and fulfilling.

The Clifton House serves individuals who reside in the communities of Hamden and New Haven. The Employment Program assists residents in attaining their financial goals, while building interpersonal skills through traditional and other means of obtaining income.  Some approaches include assisting residents who desire independent employment with support in seeking and securing jobs.

The employment support program also coordinates volunteer placements for program participants who seek to provide services to the communities or those who are interested in acquiring skills which may lead to future employment opportunities.

The Clifton House is governed by a 9 member Board of Directors. The staff consists of full-time, part-time and per diem workers who provide support to residents served by the program.  Consultants such as registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists, psychologists, social workers and other providers who contract with The Clifton House are retained to meet individualized needs of the programs participants.

Other medical needs are met through community physicians and health care providers of the resident’s choice. The Clifton House sponsors community supported fundraising activities that provide monetary support to resident’s leisure interests and the residential operating expenses. Donation are always accepted via mail or visiting our website at www.thecliftonhouse.org

The Clifton House is a private nonprofit organization providing support to individuals with developmental disabilities in community based residential  programs, employment and day support services
