UCS seeks a caring home for a male with a developmental disability. Interested in becoming a Shared Living Provider? More information below:

UCS seeks a mother-in-law apartment or shared home for a male individual with a developmental disability who is an active member of the community.

This client enjoys getting out and about, kayaking, spending time outdoors, engaging in meaningful relationships, and hanging out with his friends, listening to music, and participating in community events. He is independent with personal care and does not require 24/7 supervision.

A Shared Living Provider who can provide emotional support and skill building tools would be an excellent fit!

Interested in learning more? Please call (802) 442-5491.
