Covenant Independence

Supported Living Services for Adults with IDD in North Carolina

What is Supported Living?

Supported Living Services (SLS) is a service that helps adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who are seeking greater independence live in their own home while receiving the level of daily support they need to thrive. Rather than moving into a fully staffed setting, the person keeps their own space and routines, and support is layered in around their actual needs.

In practice, that support is personalized to each individual. It can include help managing daily tasks, maintaining household routines, building life skills, and staying connected to work, family, and community activities. The amount and type of support flex over time, increasing or easing as the person's independence grows.

The goal is straightforward: to empower each person to live as independently as possible, on their own terms, with compassionate support available for the parts of daily life where it makes the biggest difference. Independence and support are not opposites here. They work together.

Supported Living Services (SLS)
for Adults with IDD

Our Supported Living Services (SLS) are built around the unique needs and goals of each adult with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who is seeking greater independence. The approach is structured yet flexible: consistent enough to provide real stability, and adaptable enough to give each person the specific balance of support and independence that fits them best.
