Our Story
Shared Support South, Inc. was founded in 2019 on the belief that individuals living with intellectual and developmental disabilities are not defined by their diagnosis and, with the proper support, are able to achieve their dreams and become valued members of their communities.
We provide an array of services in Bucks and Montgomery counties. These services include life-sharing arrangements, home-based supports, and community living arrangements. We currently support more than 200 individuals across Montgomery and Bucks Counties.
What We Do
At Shared Support South, we prioritize each individual’s needs. We get to know them personally and we help them build lives in their communities. Not only do we create a caring, stimulating, and positive environment, but we also challenge the individual to reach his or her full potential.
We believe that the simple act of listening is the key to optimizing care. Once we have listened to individuals and their loved ones regarding their specific needs and desires, we organize support that is tailor-made to the individual.
We all rely on a circle of support. At Shared Support South, we communicate with friends, family members, roommates, and professionals from other organizations to make sure everyone is on the same page and in constant communication regarding an individual’s care. We facilitate monthly discussions in order to best benefit the individual and their close circle of support. In these meetings, we discuss progress towards their personal goals, participation in activities and relationships, we develop new and creative strategies and action plans, and we proactively assist the circle of support in pursuing the dreams of the individual alongside him or her.
At Shared Support South, we realize the importance of these close circles of support, and we weave them into our process so they can help their loved one achieve their full potential!
“The most rewarding part of working at Shared Support South is seeing people make progress towards their goals - even little steps - then seeing the achievements and being part of them is empowering for me as an employee, but also the individual, who may see very little empowerment in their daily life.”
