Community Living

Community Living

Community Living Services provide a framework in which services and support are provided to individuals served that require assistance in maintaining an independent lifestyle.

These services include training and support in the following areas; Meal Preparation and Proper Nutrition, Health Care, Home Maintenance, Laundry Care, Mobility training, Money Management, Medical Appointments and Medication Management, Physical Fitness, Legal Matters, Street Safety, Proper Attire and Homework if the individual is a student. This also includes a Parenting Program to ensure appropriate child-parent relationships, effective parenting skills, a nurturing, stable family environment, and family advocacy.

The training can be done in the community and the individual’s home. Through the acquisition of the necessary skills, individuals are expected to achieve a higher degree of independence, resulting in a better quality of life. This is to be achieved by meeting the program goals.
