Independent Living
Thriving independently is just the beginning.
Living on your own is a big step towards independence. Everyone needs a support system when they move into their own place. In Aspire’s Independent Living program, people with disabilities can settle into a place and live on their own with reliable partnership from our skilled team members.
If you or your loved one is living independently or preparing to, we can collaborate with you to understand your goals and coordinate on the right support and schedule for you.
Personalized Goals
Since no two people’s needs are the same, we work with you to set goals for independent living.
Real-Life Learning
We provide hands-on learning for life skill building in your home.
Built-in Support System
Caring team members are there for you when you need help, spending quality time with you up to 15-20 hours a week.
A program made to work for you.
We’re all unique and so are our needs as we become more independent. We’ve organized our program into two focus areas to showcase how Aspire can plug in to better serve people’s independent living needs.
Setting out for the first time
Checking In
We call and stop by to check in on an agreed-upon schedule—and are never far away if you need us.
Getting Organized
We advise on the right system of resources, checklists, and notes to help establish habits and routines.
Staying Safe
We coach on what to do and who to call in an emergency, who to let into your place, and how to handle scammers.
Meeting People
We can join in, so meeting neighbors, exploring new areas, and working out transportation feels comfortable for everyone.
Thriving day to day
Shopping and Cooking
We’re happy to work with you on budgeting, your grocery list, and cooking healthy meals…or cookies as a special treat.
Staying Healthy
We can help with the doctor, coaching you on how to advocate for yourself and get what you need.
Budgeting
We can work together on how far your money can go, helping you prioritize spending and save.
Getting Around
We can come along to help with errands and appointments—we’re even happy to drive.
