Christian Residential Opportunities & Social Services, commonly referred to as CROSS, is dedicated to providing comprehensive 24/7 residential services for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. Guided by a strong foundation in Christian values, CROSS is committed to cultivating developmental environments where each resident is given the opportunity to grow intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally. The care philosophy at CROSS centers on acknowledging the uniqueness of every individual and addressing their specific needs through personalized support strategies that nurture continual progress and well-being.
At CROSS, staff members embrace a developmental model of supervision, focusing on fostering independence and supporting the growth of each resident rather than simply assuming traditional caregiving roles. This approach promotes meaningful engagement and encourages residents to reach their fullest potential in a safe and nurturing environment. The collaborative atmosphere at CROSS emphasizes the importance of respect, dignity, and compassion in every aspect of daily life, ensuring that each person is not only cared for, but also truly valued within the community.
Residents at CROSS are recognized as individuals who, despite having intellectual disabilities, contribute significantly to the communal life through the lessons and perspectives they share each day. The approach to care is holistic, supporting not only the physical well-being of residents but also their emotional and spiritual development. Through dedicated support and a community rooted in faith, CROSS remains steadfast in its mission to provide a place where residents can thrive while experiencing a sense of belonging and purpose.
