Danville Support Services

Danville Support Services — Community Support in St. George

Danville Support Services is a community-based organization providing support services for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in St. George and throughout Southern Utah. As part of the broader Danville Services network, the St. George operation offers residential programs, supported employment, day services, and community integration support that help individuals with disabilities live fulfilling, independent lives in the Southern Utah community.

Supported Employment Programs

Danville's supported employment program connects individuals with disabilities to meaningful jobs in the Southern Utah community. Employment specialists work with local businesses to identify job opportunities, provide on-the-job coaching, and ensure ongoing support for both the employee and employer. In St. George's growing service economy — with expanding retail, hospitality, and food service sectors — supported employment placements help fill workforce needs while providing life-changing career opportunities for program participants.

Residential & Day Services

The organization operates residential group homes and supported living arrangements throughout Washington County, providing 24-hour staff support, daily living skill development, health management, and community access for residents. Day programs focus on personal development, social skills, community participation, volunteerism, and recreational activities tailored to individual goals and interests — from hiking Southern Utah's trails to participating in local arts and cultural events.

Community Integration

A core philosophy of Danville Support Services is meaningful community integration. Rather than isolating individuals in institutional settings, their programs emphasize active participation in the St. George community — shopping at local stores, dining at area restaurants, attending community events, using public parks and recreation facilities, and building natural relationships with neighbors and community members. This approach reflects best practices in disability services and enriches the broader Southern Utah community.
