Supportive Living
Charles Lea Center operates several living opportunities under the umbrella of Supportive Living. People who are able to may live in apartments in the community with staff available when needed and technology available to assist with daily tasks such as taking medications, calling for assistance, communicating with staff and families.
The Supportive Living programs are designed to provide training, support, and safety to people who live in the community, no matter their abilities or disabilities. The Supportive Living programs utilize staff in conjunction with various forms of technology to provide support for people while giving them the tools to be as independent as they can be. The goal of Supportive Living is to help people identify and realize their dreams for living in the community, provide people with the skills needed to be as independent as possible, and help people identify and utilize natural support networks as others do.
