Assisted Community Residential Services (ACRS) provides long-term residential supports for individuals with developmental disabilities and/or serious mental illness, as well as medical conditions, who require assisted living.

More about Assisted Community Residential Services:

• Not time-limited.
• Designed around individual needs and preferences.
• Emphasize full inclusion in community life.
• Living environment fosters independence consistent with an individual’s potential.
• Some services provided directly by CSB. Others are provided through contracts with private, nonprofit residential service providers in the community.
• Most services are provided directly to adults.
• Some supports are provided to families for family-arranged respite services to individuals with developmental disabilities, regardless of age.

Other services for adults with developmental disabilities include:

• Group homes that provide 24/7 supports (small group living arrangements, usually four to six residents per home).
• Supervised apartments that provide community-based group living arrangements with less than 24-hour care.
