Mission
Purpose
Roundup
Fellowship serves people with developmental
disabilities-recognizing their dignity, affirming their
ability to contribute, and helping them become as
productive and self-reliant as possible. Our array of
services include: homes for children and adults, an
on-ground school and day treatment program,
supported-living apartments, a vocational program,
community participation program, and in-home support
for families. In every setting, Roundup seeks to enable
each participant to develop the skills and attitudes
needed to function at home, on the job, and in society. Roundup functions as an interdependent network of people
giving and receiving from one another, and in the
process, building long term relationships through
commitment.
Dedication
Roundup Fellowship is dedicated to
providing a genuine community alternative to historical
institutional methods of treatment for persons with developmental
disabilities. Persons with conditions such as mental retardation,
cerebral palsy, epilepsy and autism, or who display physical
aggressiveness or self-abusiveness, are all candidates for our
services.
For over thirty years it has been our belief that even severe
disabilities and challenging behaviors can be handled positively
through the use of supportive teaching and appropriate behavioral
techniques.
Services for children are available for young people ages five
through twenty-one, with adult services available to those twenty-one
and over.
