Supported Living Services

At Redwood Family Care Network, we believe individuals should have the opportunity to live where they choose, make decisions about their daily lives, and receive the support they need to thrive.

Our Supported Living Services help individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities live as independently as possible while receiving personalized assistance tailored to their goals, preferences, and unique needs.

Whether an individual lives in their own home, apartment, or family residence, our person-centered supports are designed to promote independence, community connection, and quality of life.

Supported Living Services at Redwood

Supported living is built on the belief that individuals should have the freedom to make choices about where and how they live while receiving the support they need to be successful.

At Redwood, we partner with individuals, families, guardians, and care teams to create personalized support plans that reflect each person's goals, strengths, interests, and support needs. Rather than fitting individuals into a program, we tailor services around the life they want to build.

Our support services are flexible and designed to evolve as needs change, helping individuals increase independence, develop new skills, participate in their communities, and pursue meaningful personal goals.

Our Approach to Supported Living

Helping individuals build independence while maintaining the support they need to succeed.

Our approach begins by listening. We take the time to understand what matters most to each individual and build services around their personal vision for the future.

  • Building daily living skills
  • Developing social connections and relationships
  • Participating in community activities
