Flex Support
We are excited to introduce FlexSupport, a new service thoughtfully designed to provide flexible and individualized support tailored to your personal goals and preferences. We recognize that everyone's lifestyle and support needs are unique, and FlexSupport is crafted to honor those distinctions. This service moves beyond traditional 24/7 staffing models, empowering you to choose when and how you receive support.
With FlexSupport, you schedule specific days and times for support. From accompanying you to a concert, to teaching you about budgeting, or providing transportation to an appointment, FlexSupport offers a diverse range of personalized services. Sessions typically range from 1 to 3 hours, providing specific, goal-oriented support.
You also have choices in how you receive support. You can opt for one-on-one assistance, or, if preferred, engage in shared support with another person who has similar interests. Our goal is to provide adaptable and meaningful support that truly reflects your individualized choices and needs.
