Short Description
Executive Summary • LAO-3012 Supervised Apartment Living is a supervised residential level of care that must offer rehabilitative and therapeutic services to residents with mental illnesses in a community-based, recovery-oriented setting. Residents requiring a continuously supervised residential setting receive the necessary services and structure to remain in the least restrictive residential setting that aligns with their choices and needs. The residential programs assist residents in their recovery journey and aid them in achieving self-sufficiency by acquiring essential skills needed to transition to a more independent setting at the earliest appropriate time. Funding Priorities or Focus Areas • IDHS is working to counteract systemic racism and inequity, and to prioritize and maximize diversity throughout its service provision process. This work involves addressing existing institutionalized inequities, aiming to create transformation, and operationalizing equity and racial justice. It also focuses on the creation of a culture of inclusivity for all regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or ability.
