Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Our Supported Independent Living (SIL) services are designed to be solution-oriented. This program provides adults with an intellectual disability living in their own homes with the necessary supports to develop community connections and empowers people to live independently within their community. We work with families to find a livable solution for their loved ones whether it be living in their family home or creating an alternative housing option. We have information on how to renovate for someone with a disability and can assist in the process if separate living- quarters are needed.

Supports are tailored to each person’s unique needs, abilities, desires, and goals as reflected in their life plan. Services include financial planning/budgeting, medical coordination, meal planning/preparation, apartment management inclusive of tenant-landlord issues, organizing social/recreational activities, supporting the involvement of the person’s family and friends, and exercising one’s rights.

All people, regardless of their abilities, should have the appropriate supports to allow them to live and function independently in their community.
