Las Cumbres Community Services
Las Cumbres Community Services, Inc. began in 1970 with a structured program of day habilitation services for developmentally disabled adults with developmental or intellectual disabilities (IDD) in Los Alamos. We added a therapeutic preschool – Conjunto - in the Española Valley in 1979. Since then, we have broadly expanded services for children, adults, and families in order to meet our state’s changing needs, with more than twenty programs in place today.
Las Cumbres clients and their families seek connection to vital resources and equitable assistance to meet even their most basic needs. These include addressing food insecurity, connection to legal aid, educational, mental health services for families experiencing traumatic stress, and care coordination with medical providers, translation services, and more.
Programs can span the lifetime of a client – ranging from enrollment in a pregnancy program to early intervention services for infants and toddlers diagnosed with or at-risk for developmental disabilities; from parenting support groups to fatherhood support and groups for grandparents raising grandchildren. Bilingual and bicultural services are available for immigrant and refugee families through three separate programs. Adult Services offer residential services as well as day habilitation, supported employment, and community inclusion opportunities for adults who identify with IDD. The agency is built on a framework of diversity and inclusion for all, working for a world where every person connects and thrives in their community. Direct services are offered in Rio Arriba, Los Alamos, Santa Fe, Taos, and Bernalillo counties. Education, outreach, and referral activities make a strong impact throughout the state and across the country.
