Our Care Model The MAC’s innovative approach provides comprehensive and coordinated medical and non-medical services under one roof. The MAC seeks to help individuals with disabilities and special needs of all ages find the assistance they need to improve their health and well-being.

MAC Navigation: The MAC’s services use a family-centered approach with full collaboration from the family, MAC Member, and community partners known as MACers (pronounced “MACK-ers”). Click here to learn more.

Ultra-Accessible™ means that everyone has the same opportunity to be included and participate intentionally in their community. An Ultra-Accessible™ community should provide environments for people of all abilities where they are set up for mobility, access, and success.

The MAC Navigators The MAC Care Model™ is centered around addressing Non-Medical Drivers of Health (NMDOH) through team members known as MAC Navigators that serve as single points of contact for the individuals with disabilities and special needs that The MAC serves. Click here for the Navigation Road Map.

Pre-screening on The MAC website or in person determines eligibility to become a MAC member.

(For purposes of The MAC at Morgan’s Wonderland™, people with a “special need” are defined as individuals of all ages with long-term impairment of cognitive, sensory, motor and/or communication functions, either congenital or acquired, that are not readily rehabilitated. Furthermore, a special need substantially limits an individual’s ability to perform activities in the range of what is considered typical for a person of the same age and cultural context. A special need may result in associated social, behavioral, or mental health complexities, requiring specialized intervention by a professional. Populations served by the MAC are the range of conditions that are classified as intellectual and developmental disabilities as well as acquired or congenital physical disabilities.)

The MAC serves individuals of all ages.

ADA Adult & Babies Changing Tables available.

There are no income requirements to receive Navigation services.

Our MAC Members are members as long as they continue receiving services at The MAC.

Each of our MACers (community partners) accepts specific forms of insurance. MAC Navigators are able to connect MAC Members with the correct partner.

At VITAS we care for patients with an interdisciplinary team comprising a nurse, physician, aide, social worker, and chaplain. Other clinical professionals, from a music therapist to a trained volunteer, may work with the team to help meet the emotional and spiritual needs of the patient and their family. Our teams design personalized care plans to ensure comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

Most of the time, hospice care is brought to the patient at home, since home is where most seriously ill people want to be: in familiar surroundings with familiar routines and familiar faces.

The Wheel Chair Ministry is part of the American Wheel Chair Mission, a nonprofit dedicated to making immobile people mobile.

We deliver this mobility into the lives of people with physical disabilities who have no means to acquire a wheelchair. Providing a wheelchair to a person without mobility improves the quality of life for their whole family.

A donation of $150 will pay for one wheelchair.

We have delivered wheelchairs to the needy in Nuevo Laredo, Guadalajara, Mexico City, VA Hospitals, Selma, Alabama, Clergy Retirement Centers, and several local disadvantaged people.

If you would like to make a monetary donation to help provide wheelchairs to those in need, you may send a check, payable to American Wheelchair Mission, to the church office or place it in the collection basket the next time you come to Mass at St. Mark's.

If you wish to help provide wheelchairs to those in need with a monetary donation, you may simply place a check (payable to American Wheelchair Mission) in the collection basket the next time you come to Mass at St. Mark's.

Project Lifesaver is a rapid response program that locates people who wander away from their caregivers due to brain disorders like Alzheimer's Disease, Autism, Down Syndrome, and dementia. 

How it works: 

Clients enrolled in the program wear a bracelet that contains a battery-operated transmitter which emits a tracking signal. If the client wanders away, the caregiver would notify NBPD and a search team would be deployed. That search includes the use of a mobile receiver that can pick up the signal from the client's transmitter.

Application Requirements: 

  • Must live in the New Braunfels city limits.
  • Must have a clinically diagnosed brain disorder.
  • Must have a 24/7 caregiver.
  • Must be able to wear the bracelet at all times.

Please remember that there are a limited number of bracelets available. Those who qualify will be placed on a waiting list until additional bracelets become available. Or you can purchase a bracelet at your own cost and then register that device with NBPD. 

Click here to fill out an submit your application online. 

The program is free but is limited to the number of transmitters available.  Citizens can also purchase their transmitters directly from Project Lifesaver and then register those devices with NBPD. The transmitters provided by NBPD are the property of the Police Department and must be returned. There will be a $300 charge for transmitters that are lost, damaged, or not returned.

Trinity Oaks dedicates our Heroes Celebrations to humbly serving and sharing our appreciation for the brave men and women who protect our American way of life.

Our outdoor program for Heroes focuses on combat veterans of all generations and first responders. We understand that healing internal and external injuries and promoting general well-being is a process made easier by spending time outdoors.

For our Heroes, Trinity Oaks hosts experiences of a lifetime! Through adaptive methods, such as Trinity Oaks’ Action Trackchair (a customized, all-terrain wheelchair on tracks), participants can move beyond physical limitations to enjoy hunting and fishing with increased mobility and independence. We understand that not all injuries are physical and often host live combat veterans who are dealing with PTSD and other mental traumas.

At the end of each trip, the harvested fish and game are processed and given to the participants or distributed to others who need a nutritious meal.

The Texas Technology Access Program (TTAP) supports a statewide network of assistive technology demonstration centers to provide general assistive technology, computer access, and portable computer access demonstrations. Some demonstration Centers have Augmentative and Alternative Communication Devices. Virtual Demonstrations may also be scheduled via a Zoom meeting by contacting the TTAP Demonstration Center. Demonstrations are available to consumers and their family members, the professionals who support them, as well as advocates, employers, and educators.

Demonstrations include an explanation of the function of a device and instructions for its use. There are opportunities at each in-person demonstration event for participants to use or try several devices so that each individual will be better able to determine the most appropriate device to meet his/her specific needs. Upon completion of the demonstrations, participants are given information about further assessment if required, costs and funding, and possible assistive technology vendors for the participant to make an informed decision regarding accessing or acquiring appropriate assistive technology devices.

Consumers may also choose to borrow assistive technology seen at a demonstration from the TTAP Loan Library.
