Rural Human Services

Supported LivingIndependent Living focuses on giving each client the skills and tools necessary to live their life as independently as possible. A close relationship is developed with the clients in an effort to find out how their needs can best be met. Some of the services this program offers involve securing housing, medical appointment tracking, cooking and shopping assistance, basic transportation, and even life skills training. Each of the clients is mentally challenged and a direct referral from the Redwood Coast Regional Center.

Natural Resources RHS conducts various projects designed to improve the quality of the local waterways, thereby helping the native fish species, adjacent wildlife, and the entire community. Many of the coastal stream enhancement projects entail erosion control, fish habitat and barrier improvement, watershed restoration, and stream monitoring. RHS also conducts classroom education projects that encourage applied conservation practices and teach about the life-cycle of local salmon.
