Development

Powered by Benchmark’s 60+ years of experience as a service provider, we can help your project thrive.  

In 1960, parents of children with disabilities came together to found the Company that grew to become Benchmark Human Services. Through decades of excellent service provision and organizational growth, Benchmark has become a go-to partner for state and county governments, insurance companies and MCOs, and service providers throughout the country. We customize our approach, helping those we partner with make systemic changes to address their most urgent and complex needs.

Our work is deeply connected to our mission—to help people live as independently as possible, be included in the community, and reach their full potential. We provide a variety of services, including Active Consulting, autism services and ABA therapy, case management, day services, early intervention, employment services, family unification, group homes and supported living, mobile crisis response, and pediatric home health.

Our Services

Active Consulting: Licensed clinicians deliver intensive, walk-alongside consultation and clinical support for providers and family caregivers supporting individuals at risk of or in crisis.

Benchmark provides in-person and virtual staff training, customized to the provider organization. We also identify behavioral support staff who can be developed into higher-level roles to increase the provider’s internal capacity.

Specialized Residential: Highly-trained staff provide a broad spectrum of customized residential care, ranging from 24/7/365 to several hours a week, to individuals with a wide range of abilities.

Populations served include individuals with extensive medical and behavioral needs, forensic backgrounds, and history of institutionalization, aversive interventions and life experiences. Learn more.

Children & Family Services: We provide a variety of services to support the well-being of children and families.

Our children and family services include:

Community Transition: Experienced staff provide intensive transition planning, clinical, habilitation, residential, and other services to assist children and adults in moving to less restrictive settings.

Benchmark has successfully supported states’ deinstitutionalization and downsizing efforts. We secure and modify homes for individuals with significant needs and provide services, so they can transition out of centers and move into the community.

Mobile Crisis Response: Two-person teams of clinical staff and peer support specialists provide 24/7/365 in-person and remote crisis response to anyone in need.

Our teams de-escalate crises, support individuals in crisis, and connect individuals with community resources. Benchmark aims to decrease unnecessary use of emergency department and law enforcement resources while providing safety and support for individuals in need.

Short-Term Crisis Residential: We operate short-term respite homes for individuals who are experiencing acute crises and need intensive support to stabilize.

Our goal is to help individuals transition into less intensive placement and return to their lives in the community. From the point of admission, we begin discharge planning. We complete post-transition follow ups to support individuals’ success and stability.
