Supported Living

Supported living services are designed to help increase the independence of individuals with developmental disabilities, autism, and traumatic brain injuries.  Through this program, individuals live in houses or apartments of their choice or with family members.  We provide the level of care that each individual needs, ranging from only a few hours a week to 24-7 supervision.

At home, we help individuals with home care, personal hygiene, cooking, laundry, shopping and other daily living activities.

At ASI work centers or our day program, we help them develop vocational and habilitation skills that may lead to future external employment.  We also assist individuals in maintaining community jobs.

With all our community, home and work activities, we strive to maintain an individual’s strengths while meeting his or her needs.  Our person-centered planning process helps ensure that each individual is actively involved in setting goals with an interdisciplinary team of family members, ASI staff and medical and social service professionals.

Who qualifies

Persons who qualify for supported living services may have moved into their own dwelling from a group home or a family member’s home, or may be residing with a family member.

In order to qualify, they must meet eligibility and level of care guidelines established by the Bureau of Developmental Disabilities Services.

Who monitors services

All supported living staff are employed by ASI and are supervised by managers, who are on call 24 hours a day.  Medicaid and other quality improvement sources also monitor our programs regularly to ensure we are meeting stringent guidelines.
