Southern Cross Care provides services with disabilities via a number of programs. In addition to our services in the Pilbara through Pilbara and Kimberley Care we run an innovative Community Living program.
The Community Living program seeks to increase the range of community living options for adults with disabilities in Western Australia with an emphasis on growing innovative and personalised support arrangements in local communities.
Under this program, Southern Cross Care will be responsible for assisting clients by providing them with “community living options”. A community living option is an arrangement of individually tailored supports that are carefully planned and put in place to support a person with a disability to live a good life and have their own home in the community. The supports complement and supplement the assistance and support provided by family and/or carers, friends and social and community networks.
These community living options are person-centred and emphasise key elements of a place in the community and “a good life” such as valued relationships, choice, contribution, security for the future and opportunities for growth.
