How We Help

Crusader, problem solver, champion, friend: SKIP provides the advocacy, service coordination and support families need to take care of their sick and developmentally disabled children at home. When we hear no, we get going. The services SKIP accesses for families mitigate risks and reduce the medical, economic and emotional challenges they face. A partial list includes:

Home care, paraprofessionals, nurses
Educational placement
Medical and psychological care
Durable medical equipment
Home and vehicular modifications
Respite workers
Speech, occupational and physical therapy
Advocacy
Habilitative services
Family education and training to help parents advocate for their children and manage behavioral problems

SKIP also connects families with schools, extracurricular programs and summer camps that are specially designed to meet their needs.
