What is Shared Living?
Shared Living is a service model where a person with a disability lives in the home of a caring community member, sharing their lives under the same roof as family. It is a highly personalized approach that provides the warmth, stability, and genuine connection of a family setting.
As a Shared Living Provider, you welcome an individual into your home and support them with daily activities, community involvement, and personal growth. CLA provides comprehensive training, ongoing coordination, and 24/7 backup support so you never have to do it alone.
