Together, We’re Building Pathways to Safe, Supported Living

Supporting individuals with developmental disabilities in Suffolk County through care, community, and connection.

Our Mission

Cherished Care & Residences, Inc. (CCRI) is a Suffolk County–based nonprofit organization committed to providing reliable, person-centered soft services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

Our mission is to support dignity, independence, and meaningful community integration through high-quality therapeutic recreation, wellness supports, community habilitation, and social services.

Guided by lived experience and local leadership, CCRI addresses service gaps created by overextended systems while building a sustainable foundation for future growth and expanded supports as community needs and regulatory opportunities allow.

Building Towards Our Vision

While our long-term vision is to create safe, family-style residential living opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities, Cherished Care & Residences Inc. is intentionally launching with community-based services that meet immediate needs and lay the groundwork for future housing.

We are beginning with supportive, non-residential programs that:

Provide respite, day habilitation, and structured support for individuals and caregivers
Promote independence, social connection, and daily life skills
Strengthen community ties while building operational and programmatic capacit

This phased approach allows us to respond responsibly to community needs, align with regulatory requirements, and ensure sustainable growth as we work toward establishing residential homes.
