Supported Living Services

Individualized support to help adults with developmental disabilities live independently in their community.

Independent living starts at home.

Our Supported Living Services, also called Independent Living, provide customized support for each individual’s needs to help them achieve their own personal goals and independence.

From budgeting and managing money to food preparation and transportation, Supported Living Services provide the supports people with disabilities need to live a full and meaningful life within their community.

Supported Living Services (SLS), sometimes referred to as Independent Living, provides people with developmental disabilities with support where they need it—at home and in the communities where they live. With this service, people live in their own home or apartment and AbleLight provides the customized support each individual needs to achieve their unique goals.

Personalized support ensures that our coaches take the approach that every person they work with is different and unique. The supports that one person may have are not the same that another may need and may be affected by other factors such as location, personal goals, and level of independence.

Here are some of the different areas our coaches might assist with:

  • Assistance with selecting and moving into a home
  • Choosing personal attendants and housemates
  • Money management, budgeting, paying bills, and banking
  • Grocery shopping, meal planning, and food preparation
  • RN case management or RN oversight
  • Scheduling and attending medical appointments
  • Coordinating and supporting community involvement, like recreation and socialization
  • Arranging or providing transportation
  • Assistance with light housekeeping or paperwork
  • Guidance and support in goal-setting and self-advocacy
  • And so much more!
