Caring & Sharing Center For Independent Living Inc

Services designed to increase employment of persons with disabilities within the local communities. This is accomplished through employment counseling, employment placement, employment on the job training, and supported employment.

Our organization partners with the brain & spinal cord injury program (bscip) to provide critical services for individuals referred by bscip. These services include third-party supplemental benefits assistance, where we conduct assessments to determine clients' eligibility for benefits and assist with applications when applicable. Additionally, we coordinate and manage home modifications by providing quotes for potential modifications identified through client referrals. We also support clients by delivering and setting up durable medical equipment (dme) after receiving approval from bscip. These services aim to enhance accessibility, independence, and quality of life for individuals with brain and spinal cord injuries.

Our organization participates in the sunshine health community transition and stabilization program, a partnership between sunshine health, the florida association of centers for independent living (facil), and local centers for independent living (cils) across florida. This program focuses on assisting nursing home members transitioning back to community living by providing pre- and post-transition support to promote their independence and inclusion in the community. Cil services are provided over a six-month period, with more intensive assistance at the beginning, gradually reducing as the member's needs stabilize. Sunshine health partners with cils to ensure that members receive the necessary support for a successful transition, including additional community stabilization services to foster long-term independence.
