Supported Living Services
Supported Living Services
Our ultimate aim at Sunshine Residential Home is ensuring that the individuals become self-reliant and independent. This is why we provide services to individuals that can enable them to live independently and make their life choices in a self-determining manner. We guide the individuals whom we serve to be able to carry out chores on their own, giving the needed support that can make them reach their goals of self-actualization and self-support.
Sunshine Residential Home provides individuals with the support necessary to make everyday life decisions on their own; they can choose whether to live on their own or with a roommate, they can choose what to wear, what to cook and also make decisions as to their finances.
The entire idea of supported living is to encourage individuals to do things for themselves as much as possible, of course with our help. Individuals are assisted to carry out tasks on their own including -
- Existing leads with employers
- Cold calls and emails
- Online searches
- Monthly mixers
- Walk-ins
- Job fairs
In carrying out supported living services, individuals are guided not only to be independent, but also to understand the value of interdependence. Our crop of trained support workers understands that community focus and an appreciation for neighborliness and cordiality are at the heart of what we impart at Sunshine Residential Home.
Thus, we encourage individuals to spend quality time with family and to take part in community activities such as
- Any person who is of legal working age (18 or over) and eligible to work
- Any person who can travel independently or has dependable transportation (ADA Paratransit, Uber/Lyft, family member, etc.)
- Any person who desires to work full-time or part-time or attain self-employment, have a small personal business or develop skills training as an apprentice
Mode of Support
Our support workers, ever ready to help, are always available to provide hourly support suiting the need of each person. We provide continuous encouragement to ensure that individuals are helped to live happily and productively on their own.
