Supported Living Services

Pen Homes Supported Living Services (SLS) is a dynamic program that caters to the needs of adults with developmental disabilities living independently in their home. The field of direct care is constantly changing and evolving and so do the the needs of each person. We offer the flexibility and support for people whose needs can change without a moment's notice. Each service plan is customized depending on the needs, interests, and abilities of each person. We encourage our individuals to be active community members and thrive in a living setting of their own preference.
