Emerson
CILA, an eight-bed home, is located in Monticello,
the county seat of Piatt County. Monticello is a
small and intimate community which lacks the hectic
and impersonal aspects of larger cities. Monticello
offers a variety of outside recreational activities,
including Allerton Park which is a 1500 acre wooded
park with a 1900 Georgian home. We always enjoy
our many strolls around Allerton Park. Also, Lodge
Park provides us opportunities for picnics, fishing
and nature walks. Monticello offers unique shopping
and dining experiences with many small hometown
restaurants and unique shops from which to choose.
The Hillside CILA home, another eight-bed home operated
by the Alan G. Ryle Companies, is located just a
few blocks away. We are able to join with our friends
there to share activities, including holiday parties
and vacations. We enjoy going bowling at the local
bowling alley, out to eat, and to the railroad museum,
which offers daily train rides on historic railroad
cars. Monticello is located just off of interstate
72, with quick access to Decatur or Champaign. Other
favorite activities include going to the movies
or out to shop in the malls of Champaign or Decatur.
We also attend Camp New Hope and participate in
Special Olympics. Jazz concerts and symphonies sponsored
by either Millikin University in Decatur, or by
the University of Illinois in Champaign allow us
many cultural activities. On the weekends if you
find us at home you will find us doing craft activities,
cookouts, going for walks, watching movies, or playing
cards, and board games. We have several day training
options from which to choose, including attending
Piatt County Day Training Center in Monticello,
Developmental Services Center in Champaign, or working
in the community through a supported employment
program.
