The vision of Marrakech Inc. is that each person we serve will live and work in the community and be accepted by their neighbors, co-workers, family, friends, and acquaintances for their individual qualities and contributions.
We are seeking compassionate caregivers willing to open their hearts and homes to become a Community Companion Home provider for a person with a developmental disability. As a provider, you will give an individual with a developmental disability the opportunity to live in a natural family environment, contributing to their overall quality of life by including them as family in your daily life.
Community Companion Homes are licensed by the Department of Developmental Services (DDS). With support from Marrakech's CCH team, licensees will complete required training, background checks, home study, and a fire safety check during licensing. Residents must attend a weekly day program, allowing providers to work or participate in activities of their choice. Licensed providers will have access to supports such as respite care, Marrakech oversight, nursing support (including 24/7 on-call), and license renewal.
A licensee must be patient, empathetic, and attentive. They should be willing to assist with daily tasks such as self-care, bathing, medication management, transportation to medical appointments, and supporting social or recreational activities to promote community integration and emotional growth.
The licensee receives a monthly payment for each individual residing in their home, which includes a flat rate for room and board, plus reimbursement for care based on the individual's needs.
We consider interests and backgrounds to ensure a compatible match between the licensee and the individual.
Marrakech is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based on sex, race, color, religion, age, disability, veteran status, national or ethnic origin, or sexual orientation.
