 Seeing
Opportunities
After the Medical Diagnosis - families need help
seeing beyond their child’s limitations to the world of opportunities
that are possible with the right training and support.
Across the Lifespan - children with developmental and learning
disabilities will continue to learn and grow. As their needs change,
they require a team of professionals who are committed to their
individual health and happiness.
There is A Bright Future That Awaits - each individual
as they work toward meeting their maximum potential. Quality of
life is defined, one person at a time, by how well we are able to
help them lead a life of their own choosing surrounded by people
who care about and believe in them.
The Opportunities Are There - when we all work together
toward a common goal - a happy, high quality lifestyle. TERI has
the vision, the expertise, and the dedication it takes to support
children with developmental and learning disabilities and their
families across the lifespan.
Removing
Limitations
Focus On Abilities - that lie inside each individual.
All of us have to find ways to face our limitations and enhance
our abilities. We do this by building on our strengths and minimizing
our weaknesses. We set goals, work hard, and stay focused on our
dreams.
Never Give Up - even when the odds are not stacked in our
favor. Children and adults with developmental and learning disabilities
need a circle of support to meet their goals. TERI is part of this
circle and we never give up, despite the severity of an individual’s
behavioral, learning, or developmental challenges.
Applied Research and the Operation of Model Programs -
are two of the ways that TERI removes limitations. We aren’t
focused on a cure. We are focused on finding ways to teach and support
children and adults with develop mental and learning disabilities
across the lifespan, day by day. We seek new therapies, new teaching
techniques, and new environmental supports that can be employed
to help people reach their maximum potential. For over 20 years,
our team of experts has been focused on finding answers to everyday
problems, one person at a time.
Imparting
Hope
There’s A Place To Go To Find Solutions - for supporting
children and adults who have behavior problems, profound developmental
and learning disabilities, and multiple handicaps. That place is
TERI. Our Campaign for TERI is designed to build a support center
- one place in San Diego County where families can go to find solutions.
There’s A Team of Experts - who have spent over 20 years
designing and operating model programs for this population and engaging
in research aimed at finding ways to improve individual quality
of life.
There’s A History of Success - experienced by children
and adults who have been involved in TERI programs. We are a model
in the State of California for the quality of services we provide.
We realize our vision each time a child takes a first step forward
toward meeting their goals; a family can stop their search; and
a treatment method is found that can benefit all of us who love
and support these special individuals.
There’s Hope - that the work we do will help not
only those with developmental disabilities and their families for
generations to come, but all of us who are a part of a diverse community
that includes an ever-increasing number of individuals with these
disabilities. In order for our children to take their place as your
neighbors, co-workers, and friends, they need your understanding,
help, and involvement.
