4 New Rides for Our Lady of the Wayside!
The people Wayside supports have places to go and thanks to the generosity of the Carol Glowe Estate, they'll get there in style. Wayside is excited to announce the addition of 4 accessible vans to the agency's Transportation Program fleet of 115 modified vehicles.
This generous gift will provide vital transportation for accessing continuing education, pursuing personal interests, keeping medical and other important appointments, and visiting with friends & family.
Thank you again to the Carol Glowe Estate - and her amazing family - for all they've done for Our Lady of the Wayside!

5 Takeaways From 5 Years
Our Programs
RESIDENTIAL
At the core of the agency’s mission for over 55 years, Wayside’s Residential Program manages 70 homes throughout 4 Northeast Ohio counties, and offers a comprehensive array of supports tailored for the optimum health and well-being of the individuals the agency serves. Supported living, consortium homes, and transitional living services are all part of The Wayside family of services.
Healthcare Services
Medically vulnerable individuals require nursing attention - this fundamental premise is universal - but especially poignant for people with developmental disabilities who live without the ability to communicate, ambulate and/or advocate for themselves. Wayside’s Healthcare Services Program responds with proactive measures, medication management, on-going treatments, and a healthy dose of TLC.
Pathways Program
Offering a wide range in-house activities and community outings, Wayside’s Pathways Program is the region’s largest adult day program of its kind for individuals with developmental disabilities. Locations in Avon, Garfield Heights, Mentor, Valley View, and Westlake, offer full days of fun and friends for 300+ participants!
Transportation
Safe, reliable, and accessible transportation gives the individuals Wayside serves the ability to participate in their community, achieve personal goals, and access greater opportunities.
