Services
SUPPORTED LIVING
A Living Purpose will provide individualized support and services that reflect functional and meaningful activities relevant to the individual consumer’s age, preferences, culture, and environment. Once identified, priority needs for support services and skill-building are reflected and agreed upon by the individual consumer and the planning team. This includes developing and documenting methods and procedures, which include identifying and incorporating into the plan other community members, family, and friends who will support the well-being of the client and their efforts to accomplish the agreed-upon goals. These methods and procedures will serve as a point of reference and guide for the Case Managers and Support Specialists in the delivery of individualized supported living services.
The range of supported living services and supports available includes, but is not limited to:
- Assistance in finding, modifying, and maintaining a home of their choice
- Facilitating circles of support to encourage the development of unpaid and natural supports in the community
- Advocacy and self-advocacy facilitation
