History

The first recorded meeting of a steering committee interested in improving services for the mentally disabled in Clearwater County was held in November 1969. The corporation known as the Clearwater Day Activity Center, Inc. was founded on September 23, 1971. The activities of the corporation are charged to a Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors consists of nine members, three of whom are elected at an annual meeting held the second Monday of January each year.

The first member of the corporation staff was employed in the early part of 1972. Its purpose is to provide daytime training and educational activities for mentally disabled persons in our community.

In December of 1973 the Board of Directors concluded there was a need for a group home for mentally disabled persons in Clearwater County. On February 16, 1974, the Board employed an administrator to be responsible for establishing a new group home.

Pine Ridge Residence opened in April 1975. On March 22, 1976 Pine Ridge Residence, Inc. Legally organized as its own corporation.
