Residential Planning

Funding for residential supports is not guaranteed and can take up to 10 years to obtain. We encourage you to contact us at least five years before your desired move date. So we can help you plan a transition while assisting you to navigate the funding and find the right residential services.

It can be overwhelming to choose a residential support service for a family member. The decision requires a trusting relationship and lots of time.
