Community Mentorship

What Community Mentorship does

Community Mentorship is a Pennsylvania-based Direct Support Services provider for adults aged 18 and older with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The company delivers services under a person-centered, holistic model through six integrated programs: Licensed Residential Habilitation in community homes housing 1-4 individuals, In-Home & Community Support for independent living, Companionship, Respite Care, Behavioral Support (including functional behavior assessments and support plan development), and Supported Employment with job placement and long-term follow-up. Its stated approach combines Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support (PBIS) with evidence-based service delivery, person-directed planning, and family partnership.

The organization is a licensed provider under the Pennsylvania Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) and is required to adhere to Pennsylvania Department of Human Services standards. It bills through four Medicaid waivers — Consolidated Waiver for Residential Habilitation, PA Community Living Waiver, PA Person/Family Directed Support (P/FDS) Waiver, and PA OBRA Waiver — and serves five counties (Berks, Bucks, Chester, Montgomery, Philadelphia). Customer acquisition is community-led: referrals flow through support coordination organizations (e.g., Quality Progressions, Personlink, Consortium, Partnerships for Community Supports) and state agencies, with local business partners supporting the Supported Employment program.

The firm employs approximately 6 staff (per firmographic data) and operates from a single headquarters in Jenkintown, PA. Revenue is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct field delivery rather than sales-marketing-led, supported by a basic digital presence (website, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter). No funding rounds, M&A activity, or parent company are identified; ownership appears to be independent/private.
