Shared Living

Shared living is a community-based residential support option where an individual lives in the private home of a trained community member or family provider. This service is built on life sharing and natural relationships, offering a highly personalized alternative to traditional residential settings. Key features of shared living include:

  • A person-centered, relationship-driven living arrangement
  • Support provided in a private home within the community
  • Flexibility to meet individual goals, needs, and preferences
  • Opportunities to develop natural supports and meaningful connections

Shared Living is designed for individuals who benefit from consistent support while living in a real home environment that promotes dignity, choice, and community belonging.
