Community Support

SWC offers Community Supports provided by a team of trained professionals, committed to delivering person-centered services that promote skill development, community integration, safety awareness, and meaningful relationship building. Through coordinated home and community-based supports, we help individuals strengthen independence, build friendships, increase autonomy, and pursue personal growth in ways that reflect their unique goals and abilities.

Community Living Supports (CLS)

Community Living Supports is a community-based service that takes place in the individual’s local neighborhood and surrounding community. This service combines hands on support with intentional skill building in areas such as budgeting, meal preparation, transportation training, safety awareness, and daily routines. Staff work alongside individuals in real world settings to strengthen independence, decision making, and community engagement so they can confidently navigate and remain active within the communities where they live.

Community Access (CA)

Community Access focuses on meaningful participation in integrated community settings with an emphasis on building relationships, social confidence, and natural supports outside the home. Individuals are supported in exploring interests, joining groups, volunteering, attending events, and developing authentic friendships that extend beyond formal services. The goal is to expand social networks, strengthen communication and self-advocacy skills, and promote full inclusion within the broader community.

Personal Assistance (PA)

Personal Assistance supports individuals with essential daily living tasks such as hygiene, dressing, meals, mobility, and community involvement while maintaining dignity and respect. Staff encourage active participation whenever possible to build confidence and independence in everyday routines. This service may also be participant directed, giving individuals greater choice and control over how their care is delivered while ensuring health and safety needs are consistently met.

Respite

Respite provides short term support that allows caregivers to rest and recharge while ensuring individuals continue to receive safe and attentive care. Services may be scheduled routinely or during times of increased need, offering families peace of mind and preventing caregiver burnout. During respite, individuals remain engaged in meaningful activities that support stability, enjoyment, and continued personal growth.
