Individualized Home Supports uses a person-centered approach to support what is important to and for a person. The service combines both training and supports into a single, flexible service.

Support and training happens in four broad community living service areas:
* Community participation
* Healthy, safety and wellness
* Household management
* Adaptive skills

Individualized Home Supports expands upon how services are delivered to include both in-person and remote support service delivery. The remote support service delivery is real-time, two-way technology-based communication. This can include telephone calls, text messaging, and video conferencing.

Learn more about this service when paid for under the waivers and the Alternative Care Program in the Community-Based Services Manual.
