What it reported doing in 2025

The objective of our programs is to build self-sufficiency through housing, job preparation, and personalized support services. By empowering each person to make their own choices, they gain confidence, independence, and self-esteem. Our highest priority is ensuring that the members we support have the same opportunities as every citizen. Respect and dignity are not just words to us-they are a way of life. Our person-centered approach focuses on providing meaningful options and enabling informed decision-making, which encourages each member to thrive, achieve independence, and actively participate in their community. At new vista, we believe people can achieve remarkable outcomes with the right support. Three guiding principles drive our mission: -empowerment - creating environments and practices that enable people to make choices, take control of their lives, and reach their full potential. -inclusion - building an environment where our members and team are valued, integrated, and engaged in all aspects of our organization. -community - fostering a sense of belonging, mutual support, and active participation for everyone. New vista operates several core living arrangements services while actively renewing the youth program and seeking to initiate services for seniors and medically frail members in the las vegas valley with an id/dd diagnosis. The youth program was initially started in august 2008 and reopened on november 1, 2021. Services provided supported living arrangement (sla) - supported living for adults is provided within five models where staff support the member by providing life skills programs and supervision that can be awake through the night. -intensive supported living arrangement (isla) supports members who have significant challenges and need a higher level of supervision and support; it consists of awake staff with a staff ratio of 2:1. Intensive supported living arrangement supports members who are medically or emotionally frail and have awake staff that supervises daily medication, dietary restrictions, and offers habilitation in multiple areas. -transitional supported living arrangement (tsla) is for members who have graduated from the intensive programs and wish to be more independent; new vista provides a positive environment and programs that ensure independence through optimized health and safety awareness. -supported living arrangement (sla) is for independent members who have demonstrated that they need minimal supervision and limited support; this program focuses on allowing the members to integrate into the community fully. -in-home supported living arrangement (ihsla) is for members who reside with their family and need support intermittently -our ranch youth homes offer dedicated, specialized staff to assist members with life skills training and community integration. Supported living is provided 24 hours a day (when the member is not attending school) for youths who have significant behavioral challenges and typically have a dual diagnosis (id/dd and mental health). This is an intensive program that provides support staff and specialized contracted services, and coordinates with several agencies to ensure each member transitions into their next phase of life, whether that involves an adopted family or new vista, and ultimately into adulthood with self-actualization, strong coping skills, and citizenship. The primary agency responsible for supervision and licensing is the department of family services (dfs) -job development training (jdt)- this program provides liaison services and coaching between members and companies to create partnerships that provide competitive-wage employment for members with id/dd. -destination discovery - this is a respite program that improves the health of members with disabilities by providing healthy activities in the community and interaction with others while providing respite to caregivers.
