Lebanon Site

At the Lebanon site there are three programs offered. The Specialized Services Unit(SSU), the Vocational Unit(VU), and the Mobile Work Crew. The SSU is licensed as an adult training facility by DPW and by the Office of Aging. Specific training areas include the development of self-help skills, socialization, motor skills, and communication. The format of the program is geared to individual, small group, and large group. The VU is licensed as a work activities program by DPW and is our vocational training program. The focal point of this unit is work. Each individual is encouraged to develop skills to participate in mobile work crew, job sites in industry, and eventually, for those capable of doing so, to placement in competitive employment.

The Mobile Job Crew is made up of workers who are selected from the VU and the Advanced Training Unit. Selection is based on criteria that ensure that the individual has the skills to work on a semi-independent basis. The jobs done by the mobile job crew include: Cleaning, lawn care, light maintenance, and production work. All work is done outside of the EARS facilities. EARS also provides transportation to our clients who reside in Lancaster County. Transportation is based on need, location, and capacity of vans.
