The Personal Assistant Program is based on the philosophies of independent living and consumer control. A personal assistant can enable a person with a physical disability to reach a level of independence based on personal choices. A personal attendant is an individual who is hired, trained and supervised by a person with a physical disability, to help with routines of daily living and other tasks they are unable to perform alone. Wages are $7.50 per hour and paid every two weeks. Taxes are taken out of paycheck, there are no benefits, and no insurance.
