Shared Living

Shared Living is an option for individuals who do not fit into the group home or supported living models. Typically, these individuals are independent enough they do not need around-the-clock supervision and prefer a little more privacy than what a group home can offer. A person in the Shared Living model lives with a provider within the provider's home. Individuals are technically a roommate, but because of the close proximity to the provider, this option feels and looks more like a family atmosphere. In this program, the goal is for the individual to learn and improve on their life and safety skills. This option can be long term for some individuals, but the ultimate goal is for each to move on to a more independent living arrangement.
