Cardinal Cushing Centers 365-day residential program boasts realistic, comfortable, home-like settings conducive to learning the life skills students need to prosper following graduation.

A growing number of students with more intensive needs and complex disabilities are turning to us for support.  More and more students turning twenty-two come to us requiring continued supports in order to live and work independently within the community.  St. Coletta & Cardinal Cushing Schools continues to pioneer new and better models for the most effective ideas in teaching, vocational training, and independent living through cutting-edge facilities, curriculum, and programs. 

Skills like cooking and laundry are some of the basic life skills taught in the residential units. The homes allow a high degree of dignity with private or double bedrooms, ample handicapped accessible bathrooms. Six to eight students live in each home with supervising staff. Each home has a full kitchen for family style dining as an alternative to cafeteria food.  A common living room is a nice contrast to the private bedroom.
