Supported Independent Living

Our Supported Independent Living Program, helps individuals with mental illness thrive in the community. This program offers emotional and social support, advocacy, life skills guidance, and access to valuable resources for daily living. 
 
The Supported Independent Living program can help clients through advocacy by problem-solving in areas such as landlord-tenant disputes, accessing community resources, and setting clients up with volunteer placement in a work incentive program.. 
 
The Supported Independent Living Program provides transportation for doctor appointments, shopping, support in setting goals, meal planning, financial management, housekeeping, interpersonal skills, and banking for those who require it. Supported Independent Living will also provide Food Bank hamper deliveries weekly for those unable to pick up their own. 
 
Access to our Supported Independent Living program is facilitated through a referral process, ensuring that individuals receive the support best suited to their needs. Following a referral from Interior Health MHSU, prospective clients undergo an intake meeting with our Supported Independent Living worker to ensure a seamless transition into our program.
