Community Living Arrangements (CLA) are designed to do more than provide a place to live—they aim to foster independence, dignity, and active participation in the broader community for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Through structured support, personalized care, and skill-building opportunities, CLAs are a pathway toward meaningful community inclusion.

• Empowering Daily Living Through Support
  CLA services focus on helping individuals build confidence and master essential life skills. From managing household tasks to learning how to use public transportation or engaging in community events, residents are encouraged to take an active role in their own lives. Support staff offer guidance tailored to each individual’s strengths and goals, promoting autonomy while ensuring safety and consistency.
• Bridging the Gap Between Home and Community
  One of the core benefits of CLA is its emphasis on social integration. Individuals are supported in participating in volunteer opportunities, recreational programs, employment training, and social gatherings within their local communities. This not only builds self-esteem but also reduces isolation and strengthens the individual’s connection to their environment. Over time, these interactions help foster a sense of belonging and purpose that is essential to emotional and mental well-being.
• Creating Meaningful Connections
  The structure of CLA allows individuals to live in a stable home environment while receiving the resources they need to thrive. It creates opportunities for individuals to form friendships, engage with neighbors, and feel recognized beyond the boundaries of their home setting. This holistic approach to care encourages inclusion in its truest form.
