Supportive Living Services-SLS

Supported Living Services (SLS) are support services to assist persons with
disabilities to live on their own. The concept of supported living is that
support services are designed around the needs and wants of each
individual.

Individuals with very significant needs for support can successfully live on
their own because support services are not required to decrease over time,
as in Independent Living Services.

Supported Living Services are also designed to enable individuals served to
have maximum control over the services they receive. Consumers (with
assistance from an SLS agency as needed) participate in interviews and
have decision making power over hiring and firing of their direct support staff.

Supported Living Services include: assistance with securing and maintaining
housing, housekeeping and meal preparation, homemaking, personal care,
money management, hiring, training, scheduling and supervising direct
support staff and 24 hour emergency response services.
