The mission of La Vida Felicidad, Inc is life quality for individuals and families with special needs through individualized family services that promote full participation in the community, independence, and well-being. La Vida Felicidad, Inc was organized in 1983 with special funding (Department of Health) by the state legislature to provide early intervention services to children in Valencia County ages birth through 5 years with special needs. After the public school age for children with special needs was lowered to include 3 and 4 year old children, La Vida Felicidad, Inc contracted for several years with the Los Lunas Public Schools and the Belen Public Schools until those school systems were ready to assume complete responsibility for such services. In 1990, the Department of Health requested La Vida Felicidad, Inc to begin the provision of early intervention services to children, birth through three years old with/at risk for disabilities residing in Socorro County. With La Vida Felicidad, Inc.'s Board of Director's approval, such services began. In January 1992, La Vida Felicidad, Inc initiated respite services for both counties through an expansion grant with the Department of Health. Respite is short term care of a family member of any age having a developmental disability. In July 1992, La Vida Felicidad, Inc was awarded a contract with the Children, Youth and Families Department for the provision of home care in Valencia County for adults who are at risk for abuse, neglect, exploitation, and/or premature institutionalization. In September 1992, La Vida Felicidad, Inc was awarded a contract from the State of New Mexico, Disabled and Elderly and the Developmental Disabilities Medicaid Waiver Program for the provision of homemaker/personal care, respite and therapy services for individuals residing in both Socorro County and Valencia County. In July 1993, La Vida Felicidad, Inc was awarded funding by the Children, Youth and Families Department to provide an Adult Day Care Program in Valencia County. In July 1999, La Vida Felicidad, Inc was awarded the contract by the Children, Youth and Families Department to expand the provision of its homecare program to incorporate both Socorro County and Valencia County. In November 1999, La Vida Felicidad, Inc was designated in both Socorro County and Valencia County to provide personal care services to Medicaid eligible adults who are unable to perform some/all activities of daily living due to a disability or functional limitations. In April 2002, La Vida Felicidad was awarded a contract by CYFD to provide Adult day services to elderly individuals in Socorro county.
