Individualized Supported Living is funded through the Department of Mental Health. ISL offers a way to provide services for individuals with developmental disabilities requiring a high level of support for independent living. If an individual receives this funding, it covers all aspects of 24/7 support.

 

Community Living staff supports ISL Individuals in their home. This could range anywhere from a two-person ISL up to four-person ISL. With the help of TCM, an Individualized Support Plan is put in place. The plan focuses on areas that need support. Goals are set and implementation strategies are put in place.
