We
offer Semi-Independent Living Services to adults with
developmental disabilities who live in their own apartments.
The SILS program is for people who do not require
twenty-four hour support, but who need some assistance
in order to live independently in the community. This
service provides training and assistance so that adults
can establish themselves in the least restrictive
living arrangement possible, achieving the most normal
lifestyle possible.
We work with consumers to provide them with an array
of options and the necessary support to fulfill their
needs and interests.
Assistance may include, but is not limited to:
• Problem solving skills
• Meal preparation
• Assistance with personal cares
• Person centered planning
• Time management
• Exploration and expansion of personal interests
• Personal money management
• Household management
• Building interpersonal relationships
• Role modeling
• Self-administration of medications
• Use of community resources
Working Together
Our staff meets with families, Interdisciplinary Team
members, and the consumer regularly, in order to monitor
expectations. The schedule design is flexible to meet
the consumer’s needs.
