Narrative

In Shared Living, an individual, couple, or family share their home and life experiences with a person with an intellectual disability. A shared living provider is willing to establish  a mutually supportive relationship that offers the individual the opportunity to live the life they choose, through teaching, compassion and respect of choice.  My Choice strives to match individuals and providers who have similar interesties so that all program participants are able to have a positive, happy and rewarding experience. Caregivers are offered a monthly stipend that reflects the level of care needed for the individual. My Choice Programs offers ongoing support, training and supervision.

Most Individuals in our Shared Living Program are looking for a long term arrangement. Some individuals however, seek to have a temporary placement with the ultimate goal of living independently. Those individuals are considered for our Transitional Living Care Program.
