Independent Living, Inc. - Harrison, AR

Our Waiver Program is an integrated array of assisted living services and supports designed to help individuals with developmental disabilities who without supports would be at risk for institutionalization to live successfully in their own homes, with family, or in an alternate living situation.

Regardless of residence or location, every Waiver participant receives assistance through a specialized Plan of Care. The Planof Care is developed with an aim of helping participants achieve maximum independence

by identifying the Self-Care, Socialization, and Adaptive skills they need to live in the community. Appropriate Waiver staff are then selected to work with participants to strengthen those skills, with the hope that the need for services will eventually be reduced or eliminated altogether. For example, a Plan of Care may indicate the participant needs staff to assist them with such tasks as laundry, grooming, housekeeping, money management, shopping, meal preparation, etc.

The Waiver services provided by Independent Living, Inc. are specifically tailored to each individual, and may range from 40 hours a month to 24 hours a day, depending on the individual’s needs.
