This free program helps residents transition from long-term care facilities back into a community setting. We provide individuals with a clear pathway regarding available choices for long-term service and support options for those who like to return home, or to another residential setting in the community.
Our staff works with the individual, the long-term care facility staff, family members, caregivers, guardians, community service providers, and others to ensure that transitioning individuals are connected to programs and services to help ensure the greatest level of independence possible in a community setting.
- Are you a resident of a nursing facility or assisted living facility who would like to return home or to the community?
- When you get home will you need assistance?
- Are you in a facility and need assistance navigating the long-term care service system?
- Are you a caregiver or know someone who needs assistance with this transition?
What kind of help can I get?
Here are just a few examples:

- assistance programs, utility assistance programs among other services available in your local community
- Assist in ensuring that you receive the public benefits you are entitled to receive
