Gateway Center Of Monterey County Inc

Our mission: Is to provide a caring and stimulating environment where people with intellectual disabilities can achieve their individual goals, safely and with dignity. Gateway Center’s core values are guided by the following principles that dictate everything we do: Rights, Choices and Opportunities for Growth for everyone we serve Who We Serve and What We Do: Gateway Center of Monterey County serves over 60 adults with developmental disabilities in both day and residential programs. Many of the individuals we serve have been with Gateway for a quite a few years and are now older adults. Consequently, a number of them have multiple health issues. Each of our consumers has an individualized, Person Centered Program Plan with specific goals that are regularly reviewed and revised by an interdisciplinary team. Our day programs provide a wide range of daily activity choices for each individual. All are designed to be fun and rewarding, while enhancing community integration, life skills and socialization at the same time. Our residential programs also include activities intended to enhance independence, community integration and the acquisition of daily living skills. All our programs are designed around creating and maintaining a safe, caring, non-judgmental and supportive environment.
