KETCH

Our mission is to help people with disabilities live and work in the community.

Since our beginning in 1964 the Kansas Elks Training Center for the Handicapped, Inc. (KETCH) has stood as a leader in the rehabilitation industry, serving more than 30,000 individuals with disabilities. Much has changed since then, but one thing remains the same—our commitment to help people with disabilities live and work in the community. We believe that a persons disability should not overshadow a persons many capabilities. To meet our mission KETCH provides a wide array of services to help each person become as successful as possible.

Each month, KETCH has 2 to 4 people who are temporarily ineligible for funding.
That adds up to $17,000 to $34,000 in lost revenue every month—funds that should be supporting staffing, transportation, residential care, skill-building, and community inclusion.
You can make a direct impact and support people with IDD. Donate now at https://donorbox.org/make-a-difference

With Turkey Day coming up, both staff and persons served at KETCH tried to help by disguising our feathered friends! Our Turkey In Disguise contest had 24 amazing entries, and while we know our favorites, we’d love to hear yours! Leave a comment saying your favorite turkey!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our Staff Potluck! There were so many amazing dishes and conversations had. Coworkers like these really give you something to be thankful for!

Stay tuned for the announcement of our Turkey in Disguise winners! Our top three will get a treat to gobble gobble up!

When a person we support becomes temporarily ineligible for HCBS funding, the impact is immediate. Eligibility can only restart on the first of a future month, and retroactive reinstatements rarely happen.
That means even a short lapse can cost KETCH an entire month of funding, more than $8,500 for one person who receives both Day and Residential support.

You can help us bridge these gaps and support people with IDD. Donate now at https://donorbox.org/make-a-difference
