community-based services
Supported Housing/Supported Living Program focuses services around community-based rehabilitative principles. Team members provide service and support to consumers that are designed to enhance the consumer’s ability to acquire the skills and develop the support networks necessary to live independently in a setting of their choosing.
This includes:
- establishing community integration
- skill attainment
- restoration of functional ability
Team members work closely with consumers and their family members to identify their individual areas of need. The team members then develop individual treatment plans designed to help the individuals acquire or restore skills and/or supports required to obtain their identified goals.
LINCC Program (Living Independently, Connecting Communities) started in the summer of 2024 and is funded by the Department of Children & Families. This model is reliable, accessible, and a vital step toward successful transition to being part of the community with minimal supports. It integrates our many years of experience providing Supported Housing/Supported Living, to ensure the people we serve in this program receive the necessary case management and mental health supports to live successfully in safe, affordable housing. LINCC is comprised of our Owls Nest Transitional Housing Program, as well as three permanent housing locations: Whispering Pines, Delmar Terrace, and Valor Preserve. Supported Housing staff help individuals to apply for eligible financial assistance, to include various entitlements as well as housing subsidies. Staff work closely with individuals to help them achieve their recovery goals, to include independent living skills, employment, and accessing needed resources so they can live successfully in our community.
