Rhode Island Services - Living Innovations

We are Rhode Island’s preferred provider of shared living arrangements for individuals with disabilities!

Some of our participants have been with the same Home Provider for 10 years!

We are dedicated to being Rhode Island’s provider of choice for both Shared Living and Community Connections services. We accomplish this by putting the people we support at the center of all we do and by providing excellent customer service to all team participants including guardians, social case workers, and family members. This commitment is demonstrated by the fact that we respond to more requests for emergency services than any other Shared Living provider in the state.

Our Rhode Island management team has great expertise and experience in providing services for people with a broad range of intellectual and developmental disabilities. That depth of experience allows us to provide comprehensive, personalized and inclusive services to meet the very unique needs of each person we serve.

Please contact us if we can help find the supports that are a just-right fit for you or the person you care about.

Shared Living Arrangements (SLAs)

Community Connections

SHARED LIVING ARRANGEMENTS (SLAS)

The SLA model is based on carefully matching a person in need of support with a host family in a natural home, as opposed to an institutional environment.

The person receiving support:

Is an active participant in the process of selecting the host family.
Benefits from having supports, meals and activities that are a good fit for them.
Has the experience of a nurturing family-like environment.
Receives the highest level of individualized care and community integration, compared to any other residential model.

With more than twenty years of experience helping hundreds of people thrive in Shared Living homes, Living Innovations has the knowledge and dedicated professional staff to bring about optimal results.

COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS

Strengthening communities through the inclusion of all people to the highest degree possible is a core value of Living Innovations.

Community Connections is:

Community-based and not dependent on a facility.
Takes advantage of local educational, social and employment opportunities.
Facilitates the development of “natural supports” – relationships with people other than paid staff.
Is individualized to the needs, desires, and interests of participants.
Is focused on enhancing health, safety and independent living skills.

The highest priority for most people in Community connections is to get a job. We assist participants in developing job skills and in searching for and obtaining a job when they are ready.
