"The IARF Member of the Year Award is
always a gratifying award to present," said Janet Stover, executive
director of IARF. "It recognizes a member that exemplifies the
association's code of ethics and our mission. And it recognizes a
member that understands the importance of participating in the
association's activities. Charleston Transitional Facility, although
relatively new, has accomplished much for those it serves and for
the association. I congratulate everyone who has made CTF an
exemplary provider of services and supports,"
CTF received the IARF Member of the
Year Award in large part due to the outstanding developmental
training and residential programs it provides to individuals with
disabilities. CTF is a private not-for-profit organization
established in October 2000. In three short years, CTF has
experienced tremendous growth and provides supports and services to
over 300 individuals through its four developmental training
programs and 17 residential homes. CTF has a true statewide presence
in the rehabilitation field, offering services to people living in
communities throughout Illinois.
