In order to provide the most effective and efficient services, Beacon – Virginia embraces the use of technology throughout its programs.  By integrating technology, we are able to do our job more efficiently, which allows us to put the focus where it belongs- On the persons we support.

Our electronic system is web based and allows authorized family members, Support Coordinators and county and state officials to review a person’s real time experiences.

Dignity

We create an environment where supported persons can voice their opinions and exercise control over their lives, and advocate for themselves.  For example, supported persons take part in the selection of their homes and common area furniture when possible. Personal choice of supported persons can be seen in their bedroom decor, menu selection, and their house leisure and recreational activities. Each site also facilitates house or program meetings where persons in the program have a place to voice their opinions. Persons in our programs are involved in choosing on-site and community activities, developing the menu, and scheduling classes and performance.

Community Inclusion

We define high quality programs by our ability to offer the persons we support as many opportunities as possible to participate in the community.
