Cornerstone Support Services was founded in a belief that all people want to live independently and participate fully within their own homes and community. We recognize that at different times throughout each of our lives we may require support to continue to be as independent as possible. Our highly qualified and experienced team members work with you to develop a comprehensive support plan to reach your specific goals.

Cornerstone Support Services provides a free in home consultation process to design and build an individualized support plan that is implemented through our direct services provided by our quality Support Workers.

MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

My name is Marie Benassi. I founded Cornerstone Support Services as a result of my life time commitment to the belief in family, community and helping others.

At a very early age, I demonstrated a strong conviction to helping others especially those who were marginalized. My commitment to others led me to an education in Social Work graduating and working for 35 years in a variety of human service organizations. This professional experience along with many personal experience of caring for loved ones, gave me a very real understanding of the importance of having quality supports available to families during these difficult times.

My greatest reward is the ability to make a real difference, to understand fully my clients and their families concerns and to respond to them in a unique and individualized approach. I realized that when the individual and family are supported as a whole, everyone’s needs, concerns and fears are addressed while still maintaining a safe environment and peace of mind for all. I understand the importance of home and community and the need to feel like an included and participating member throughout our lives.

Compassionate care, understanding and a strong commitment to family is what differentiates the services provided by Cornerstone Support Services.
