Narrative

Our Residential Programs provide a variety of living options within the community including independent-living arrangements and Individuals Supports, which are partially staffed homes (less than 24/7 staffing) and fully staffed homes (24/7 staffing).

Individual Support

One model provides case management for persons living independently in the community. The services are catered to the needs of the person. Services include but are not limited to management of medical needs, tenancy issues, benefit coordination and money management.

Another model provides partially staffed homes which is a hybrid of case management and support staff. The homes are staffed part-time with a schedule that is customized to meet the resident’s needs. This support is augmented with case management.

24-Hour Support

 

This model provides private residences integrated within the community that are staffed 24 hours a day. These homes provide supports for multiple adults, each with their own private bedroom.

Referrals are primarily made through the Department of Disability Services although private pay arrangements are available.
