Supported Independent Living
Do you want to live on your own and need some support to build your independent living skills, confidence, and community connections? Consider our Supported Independent Living services!
Supported Independent Living empowers adults with developmental disabilities ages 18 and older to live on their own with flexible support based on their needs and goals.
Our services can provide you support or assist you to build your skills in the following areas:
-
- Activities of Daily Living
- Self-Care
- Household Management and Maintenance
- Menu Planning, Grocery Shopping, and Meal Preparation
- Medication and Health-Care Management
- Medical, Dental, and Specialist Appointments
- Self-Advocacy
- Budgeting, Paying Bills, Filing Tax Returns, and Accessing Financial Support like ODSP
- Community Resource and Service Connections
- Finding a Place to Live
- Communicating with Your Landlord
- Social Connections, Networks, and Relationships
- And more
Our aim is to assist you to build your independence, real relationships with other people, and connections in your community.
While we can provide support for a lot of things, you will still be living in your own place, which means you will be responsible for paying for your rent, utilities, food, furniture, and other household costs, depending on your situation.
