OUR PHILOSOPHY

New England Residential Services and its' board of directors believes that people with disabilities
have a right to be visible, integrated members of society, worthy of respect and deserving of
meaningful lives.  We believe that a home should be a reflection of those who live there as well as
a warm nurturing place where people can develop trust, self-esteem and some degree of
independence.  We are committed to assisting the people we support to live in homes that are as
close as possible to those of others in the community.

New England Residential Services adheres to the DMR Mission Statement in the following manner:  
  • We value, enable and encourage relationships with family and friends.
  • We are committed to the right to choose, believing that the individuals we support have the
    right to make or assist with decisions that affect their lives.
  • We support individuals in their development of skills and independence
  • We recognize the need for respect and we train our staff to support people with dignity.
  • We believe that individuals belong in the community, enjoying the opportunities and activities
    offered by the local community.


In the everyday life of New England Residential Services, it is the operation of our homes, the
participation and enjoyment of individuals in their homes and in the community, good relationships
with family and friends and well trained, committed staff that bring a good quality of life to each
person.  We are committed to:
  • Maintaining our homes, grounds and vehicles to reflect a high standard of cleanliness,
    attractiveness and comfort.
  • Locating homes in neighborhoods that are safe, accessible to the community, and provide for
    privacy.
  • Involving individuals in as many choices as possible, i.e., food, work, clothing, furnishings,
    menus, activities, daily tasks and household routines.
  • Providing a balance between community and home life.
  • Developing and maintaining good relationships with our neighbors and the general
    community.
