RESIDENTIAL SERVICES

Group Homes: Located in Bismarck and Mandan, these homes support individuals who have developmental disabilities to live more independently. Individuals may choose to remain living in a group home or transition to supported living.

Individual Supported Living; is designed to assist individuals to live independently in their own apartments. It's often referred to as "ISLA" or "SLA". The amount of support the person receives ranges from one hour per week to 24 hours a day, depending on each individual's specific plan.

In-Home Family Support: offers assistance to the family of an individual who has developmental disabilities. Staff provide assistance in a family's home setting while meeting the health, social and safety needs of the individual. Allowing the family respite(relief and rest) reduces the stress experienced by families caring for family members who have special needs. This service may take place in or outside the home. The goal is to offer assistance to the family member so the individual may remain in the family home and prevent a placement that would be more restrictive.
