Narrative
Shared Living serves adults with developmental disabilities who are in need of a welcoming home that can provide ongoing support. The person is matched by Venture with an individual or family who has been recruited and screened as a Shared Living Provider.
As part of Venture’s responsibility to place an individual into a Shared Living Provider’s home, the agency recruits, screens, trains and provides ongoing support to the Provider. The Provider is expected to meet the needs of the individual through a person-centered plan which is designed to respect the unique needs and wishes of each person served.
