Living Independently

Having the opportunity to live independently is important to the individuals we serve at MSDC. Some people choose to live alone, and others choose to live with a housemate. The support provided by MSDC provides services based on an individual’s needs and desires.

Individuals who receive the Developmental Disability Medicaid Waiver Services are eligible for this service.
