Supportive In-Home
In-home support service is a residential service that takes place in the individual’s home, family home, or community settings that typically supplement the primary care provided by the individual, family, or other unpaid caregiver and is designed to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the individual. The individual shall be living in their own home or the family home. This service shall include a skill building (formerly called training) component, along with the provision of supports that enable an individual to acquire, retain, or improve the self-help, socialization, and adaptive skills required for successfully living in their community. In-home support service shall be covered in the FIS and CL waivers. Supportive In-Home is NOT a 24 hour service and a backup is required.

Independent living support service is provided to adults 18 years of age and older that offers targeted skill building and supports necessary for individuals to secure and maintain their own home in the community. An individual receiving this service typically lives alone or with roommates in the individual’s own home or apartment.
