“Providing quality services to individuals and families within their own homes and communities”
Our Mission: To provide assisted living opportunities and community-based services that improve the quality of life, further personal goals, improve functional skills, promote consumer empowerment, and enrich the lives of the people we serve.
IMPACT Services, Inc. is a private, not-for-profit organization, dedicated to providing quality, specialized, behavioral health services to children, adolescents, adults, and older adults (and their families) with a mental illness, developmental disability, or other complex behavioral disorder.
Individuals with health needs and behavioral health disorders who were once provided services in nursing homes, hospitals and group homes are now offered services in a less restrictive, community setting that is familiar and convenient.

The design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of all services is guided by principles that include:

- Services incorporate the culture and value system of the individual.
- Individual choice, satisfaction, safety and positive outcomes are the focus of services.
- Individuals are offered the support and services necessary to be successful where they live, work and play.
- Services are provided by highly trained staff and are designed to meet the specific needs of the individual.
