Life Adjustment Center

What Life Adjustment Center does

Life Adjustment Center (LAC) is a New York State nonprofit provider agency founded in January 1991 that delivers person-centered residential, day habilitation, and community habilitation services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), autism, and cerebral palsy. Operating under the regulatory jurisdiction of the New York State Office for People With Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD), LAC runs 12 Individualized Residential Alternative (IRA) sites across The Bronx, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, four Day Habilitation programs, and in-home Community Habilitation services, collectively serving more than 200 individuals. The organization also operates an Early Childhood Center (lacearlychildhood.org), extending its platform into pediatric developmental services.

LAC's core technology is a labor-intensive, person-centered care model in which individualized service plans are delivered by trained Direct Support Professionals; the input data references 'adaptive technologies' integrated into care delivery but provides no specific technical detail. The organization has no proprietary software, patents, or technology products disclosed.

LAC's revenue model is entirely managed-services reimbursement: the majority of revenue derives from NY State Medicaid waivers and OPWDD funding for 24-hour Supervised Residential, Supportive Residential, IRA, Day Habilitation, and Community Habilitation services. Supplemental revenue comes from charitable donations (via check, cash, and PayPal). Client acquisition flows through OPWDD's Front Door eligibility process and referrals from Care Coordination Organizations including Advance Care Alliance, Care Design NY, and Tri-County Care, with direct enrollment handled internally by an Enrollment Coordinator. Leadership comprises founder Dr. Yuri Feynberg (now Founder/former Executive Director) and current Executive Director Alex Coroneos.
