Challenge:

Adults with developmental disabilities often face major barriers to accessing safe, affordable, and inclusive housing.

These barriers include:

  • Lack of income or rental history, which disqualifies them from traditional housing

  • Over-reliance on family caregivers, leading to stalled independence

  • Waitlists for licensed residential facilities, with little flexibility for choice

  • Housing options that feel institutional or dont support community inclusion

  • Limited support with daily living skills, preventing long-term housing stability

Our Solution:

Next Level Living directly addresses these issues by offering a non-facility housing program built on dignity, independence, and support:

Heres how we solve it:

  • Private housing in a safe, inclusive neighborhood, not a facility or group home

  • Subsidized rent based on income, including $0 for those with no income

  • Rental agreements and real tenancy rights to build a history of independence

  • Voluntary support services (ILS, PA, Social Rec) aligned with Regional Center funding

  • Access to the community, employment, and personal development programs

  • Personal Community Coach and life-skills mentoring for those who request it

  • Compliance with HCBS Final Rule, ensuring full autonomy and choice

This program empowers each participant to live in a real home, grow their confidence, and transition toward full self-sufficiency—with no institutional feel, no forced routines, and loss of rights.

Our Program Includes:

Beautiful Shared & Private Homes in safe, vibrant communities

Tailored Independent Living Support through the Self-Determination Program (SDP) or Participant-Directed Services
