What this support looks like

Individual Community Living Support is a 245D service that helps a person remain engaged in community life, manage household responsibilities, and build the skills and relationships that support independence. It can include community participation, household management, health and safety supports, and help with planning and decision-making.

Examples of daily activities

  • Attending community events, classes, or a place of worship
  • Learning to use public transportation or arrange rides
  • Budgeting, bill reminders, and household planning
  • Building connections with neighbors, groups, and local organizations
  • Practicing health and safety routines at home

These are illustrations, not a fixed list. Support is planned with the person and may differ from what's shown here.

Person-centered benefits

  • Stronger ties to the local community and less isolation
  • Practical household and money-management skills
  • Support with planning that reflects the person's own goals
  • A more active, self-directed week

Eligibility for this service is determined through a person's assessment, authorization, and funding. Lakeland Health Services does not guarantee waiver eligibility, payment coverage, or specific outcomes.
