About HBCS Waiver Support
We deliver a range of Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) that keep people living the lives they choose—in their own homes and neighborhoods—with the right supports at the right time. Services are individualized, flexible, and built around the person’s goals.
PBS informs every support plan—proactive, teachable, respectful. We ensure services center on valued social roles and full community inclusion, not just access.
We Offer The Following Services:
Individual Support / Community Habilitation
This service provides individualized, in-home or community-based skill building to support greater independence. Coaching may include daily living skills, communication, social skills, budgeting, travel training, and community navigation—always tailored to the person’s goals and preferred routines.
