Care for Adults With Disabilities

Support that follows the person's own goals, independence, work, school, and community, rather than working around them.

Independence first

Care for adults with physical, intellectual, or developmental disabilities should expand what a person can do, not shrink it. Plans are written with the client, not merely about them, and they name specific goals: keeping a job, getting to class, living alone, managing a household.

What support can include

  • Personal care and mobility assistance
  • Transportation to work, school, therapy, and social activities
  • Help managing a household and a budget
  • Assistance with adaptive equipment
  • Support attending medical appointments and advocating in them
  • Companionship and community participation
