The Cooperative for Human Services has over 40 years of successful experience. We serve young adults as they transition from school to adult services. This major life transition can be stressful for families. They are often faced with the reality that there is a lack of flexible, individualized support service options available. Funding from MA Department of Developmental Disabilities (DDS), MassAbility, MA Department of Public Health (DPH) and other disability agencies is limited or unavailable.

To help people and family members to successfully deal with these funding challenges, CHS has developed Turning 22 housing and support service options for students with special needs and their family members. CHS clinicians and specialists help to assess their family member’s needs. They work with each family to develop a community living plan that meets their personal view of the future.
