Home & Community Based Services

RCIL offers a wide variety of programs to assist individuals with disabilities in living independently. Program staff coordinate the services of RCIL Technology, Advocacy, and Employment programs to ensure that each consumer receives appropriate support in all areas. Staff also offer information and referral to other appropriate community resources.

Key programs include the following:

  • Consumer-Directed Home Care -- Allows individuals who qualify for home care through Medicaid the opportunity to take control of the services they receive.
  • In-Home Respite -- Gives caregivers of people with disabilities time to pursue personal, business, or recreational activities. A qualified respite worker will come to your home to supervise and interact with your family member while the caregiver is away.
  • Medicaid Waiver Programs -- Enable individuals with disabilities to reside in the living arrangements of their choice with the type and degree of support needed to increase independence in the home and community.
  • Peer Counseling -- Offers the opportunity for consumers to work with people who have personal experience with disability issues.
  • Service Coordination -- Case management services are provided in conjunction with several other programs at RCIL. Staff put their advocacy experience and expertise regarding community resources and services directly to work for consumers.
