Life Only Gets Better from here
Adults with mental health/behavioral issues living in their homes or foster care settings will benefit from Integrated Community Support Services (ICS) program. The ICS program is centered around the client’s home and community. We tailor our services to fit the family culture, to meet the consumer’s needs and to be flexible in schedule and design.
What Are Integrated Community Supports?
Integrated Community Supports (ICS) are a 245D licensed service for adults 18+ on the BI, CAC, CAID or DD waivers. Providers provide support (e.g. supervision, cuing, and assistance) and training for adults (18+) in a provider-controlled, multifamily housing building (integrated community supports setting). Providers may deliver up to 24 hours of service support in a day. In a way, Integrated Community Supports (ICS) are similar to other “group home” programs.
