Options for Community Living
UCP’s Options for Community Living program offers individualized, community-based supports for adults with physical, cognitive, or developmental disabilities who live in accessible apartments across eastern Massachusetts. This program promotes independent living while providing flexible assistance based on each person’s needs and goals.
Participants receive support in key areas such as:
- Personal care attendant management
- Transportation and financial management
- Health and household management
- Self-advocacy and decision-making
- Social and recreational engagement
Our goal is to empower individuals to live as independently as possible. Supports are tailored through collaborative goal setting and annual assessments, with an emphasis on skill-building, self-direction, and gradually reducing assistance as independence grows. Case managers provide only the level of help needed, encouraging participants to take the lead in their own lives whenever possible.
The program fosters personal growth, community inclusion, and the development of meaningful relationships—offering a true alternative to institutional or family-based care.
Eligibility
Participants are typically 18 or older, emotionally and medically stable, and meet criteria set by the relevant state agency.
