Voluntary Placement Services (VPS)

Children in residence have needs which require the efforts of a caring team of professional staff, along with their family, to succeed in becoming full participants in their lives and their community.

OUR MISSION

We are a Licensed Children’s Residential Provider in the Out of Home Services (OHS) Program. Our mission is to give at risk developmentally challenged children and their families a new beginning. We provide the services, stability and love that are needed for these children to develop socially and academically. Our goal is for them to reach their highest ability and achieve success in their relationships, schools, and communities.

OUR VISION

Helping developmentally challenged children who are behavioral at-risk have a better life and preparing them to be adults in the world they live in.

Judi Bailey

FOUNDER & CEO

I started Visions for a New Beginning in 2013 with a vision to do things differently in the ASD caregiving community. I have a deep compassion for all people and an appreciation for individualization. I love team playing and believe we all have value and can constantly learn and grow together while helping Visions’ clients do the same.

 

I have 30 years experience working directly with children from all ages and walks of life, 12 of those being in the autism community. I love this population of humans that we serve. My goal for our clients is to create loving, safe, and comfortable homes with caring staff that love to help develop others. My hope is that the staff become like family to these children while helping them achieve their highest level of development and independence.

ADMINISTRATION

I have 13 years’ experience working with individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities, ranging from ages 2-21. I started in an ECEAP classroom for disabled toddlers in fall of 2010 and found my passion in group homes a year later. I graduated from Washington State University (Go Cougs!) with a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a minor in Human Development, with a focus on attachment theory and parent-child relationships.

 

I use my degree every day to help these clients navigate the struggles of rehabilitation while away from their loved ones and encourage all parents to interact with their child throughout the process. I value honesty and authenticity from the clients I serve as well as the parents on everyone’s expectations. Reunification is my goal, although I do understand this is not always feasible in every situation.

PROGRAM MANAGER

I have worked for Visions for new beginnings since April 2019. I have worked with disabled youth for thirteen years, five years in two different school districts where I serviced youth from kindergarten through high school, and eight years in DSHS group homes.

 

I have enjoyed being an active advocate for children with disabilities; throughout the years, I have realized that showing kindness to one another strengthens our community and gives us all a sense of purpose.

PROGRAM MANAGER

This is a career path less traveled and is so rewarding. Watching each child grow and succeed is an incredible rewarding experience. Visions offers diverse options to move into management, gain knowledge that can be used in different facility settings and leaves plenty of room for personal fulfillment. After over 7 years with Visions, I am confident that I will stay with the company and continue to build lifelong relationships with clients and staff alike.
