ABOUT US: Since 1980, WellLife Network, has been meeting the growing challenges of individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities and mental illness. Our multidisciplinary approach and centralized referral process help to ensure that each person we serve receives the appropriate range of services and level of care, with an individual treatment plan, coordinated by highly competent and supportive case management professionals. In its early years, WellLife Network operated and maintained community residential facilities for people with developmental disabilities and mental illness, and provided programs of care, service, habilitation, rehabilitation, and social and recreational activities, in a home-like environment. Partnerships Make It Happen For almost four decades, WellLife Network has changed, evolved, and expanded, while remaining true to its mission of meeting the diverse needs of New York communities, businesses, and society and assisting those we serve to achieve greater personal and economic independence. WellLife Network has a long and valued tradition of working in partnership with the government, the business community, private philanthropy, and our colleagues in the nonprofit sector to offer proactive responses to society's social and economic challenges. Since its founding, the WellLife Network culture has been marked by program growth and organizational development.
