Bittersweet Farms provides a range of consultative services that address a variety of needs, including the need for information, the need for recreation and respite, the need for individualized educational planning, and the need for transitional (school to work) planning.
We also provide the behavioral consultation necessary to maintain and increase the residential independence of clients who are living in communities across northwest Ohio. Finally, as part of our "Bittersweet Academy" initiative, we are prepared to help planners and entrepreneurs replicate our philosophy, treatment model, programming and physical plant facilities.
