The main campus, a picturesque 27-acre setting in Somers, Westchester County, New York, consists of an Intermediate Care Facility (ICF) supporting 33 consumers and our Day Habilitation Center serving 25; of whom thirteen come to us from neighboring agencies. In addition, situated nearby are two Community Residences (CRs) and two Individual Residential Alternatives (IRAs); home to an additional 36 consumers for a total of 82 adults served.

Opengate recognizes the right of developmentally disabled persons to become part of the mainstream to the maximum extent of their capabilities. We provide therapeutic programs and services in a nurturing environment for those in need of habilitation, and provide options for community living for those who can benefit from a more independent atmosphere.

A voluntary board of directors sets policy and oversees management of the agency. Members of the board have diverse backgrounds. Some are parents of Opengate residents while others are connected purely by altruism. Many of the board have served at length; their active dedicated service demanding much effort and time.

Opengate is licensed by the New York State Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities (OMRDD) and interfaces in close cooperation with the Hudson Valley Developmental Disabilities Services Office (HVDDSO).
