"Your team is making a difference." Sherrie Kenny, Client Parent

Merrick, Inc., is dedicated to serving adults with developmental disabilities by offering a full array of services that offer meaningful vocational options, enhance personal skills, empower choice making abilities, and expand participation in the community.

Most of the clients in our program have a primary diagnosis of mental retardation (approximately 48%, 25%, 19%, and 8% in the mild, moderate, severe, and profound range of retardation respectively). A number of the clients in our program are non-ambulatory, sight impaired/blind, hearing impaired/deaf, do not communicate verbally, or have special dietary concerns (e.g. G-Tubes, dietary restrictions, modified diets, etc.). In addition, many clients have secondary diagnoses that include autism, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, mental illness, seizure disorders, and other related conditions.

Transportation services to and from the program can usually be arranged through our transportation services department. In addition, Merrick, Inc., contracts with the Phoenix Corporation for nursing and speech services and offers a variety of non-vocational and habilitative services. We also have a full-time Occupational Therapist on staff.
