The Cape Head Injured Persons' Housing and Education Group,
Inc., also known as CHIP, is a private non-profit, 501(c)
(3) corporation founded by Cape Cod residents and incorporated
in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The organization was
established in 1992 to provide support and assistance for
head injured residents of Cape Cod. CHIP is committed to providing
community-based housing for individuals who are disabled because
of severe closed-head injury or other disability.
The overall mission of CHIP is to provide long-term, community-based
housing that is safe, dignified, and tasteful. Our objective
is to provide support services to disabled individuals so
they can maximize their functional potential and achieve their
highest level of independence in the community.
It is also the intention of CHIP to enable each resident,
up to the level of their ability, to participate in decisions
that affect their lives and to enhance their quality of life
to a degree not possible in an institutional setting. It is
also part of the mission of CHIP to involve the community
and its resources in the lives of the residents and to enable
the residents to contribute to the community by joining community
activities and sponsoring social and educational programs
that foster the general welfare.
