At Independent Living in Jacksonville, OR, we empower individuals with high-functioning autism to embrace their independence through our personalized residential program. Our thoughtfully designed living spaces accommodate two to three participants, fostering a supportive environment where meaningful connections can flourish. We offer essential support initiatives and skills training tailored to each participant’s needs, including smart homes equipped with assistive technology, and training in meal planning, cooking, budgeting, and cleaning. Our program promotes not only daily living skills but also social interactions among roommates and our dedicated staff. For those dealing with anxiety, we provide partnered counseling services to enhance emotional wellbeing. Participants have the option to live in pre-screened, affordable rental homes, and as they gain skills, they can transition to units that promote greater independence. Our mission is to help each individual thrive and live their best life with confidence and autonomy.
