Supported Living Services Waiver (SLS)

The Supported Living Services Waiver (SLS), for adults 18+, provides necessary services and supports for individuals with adults with Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities (I/DD) so they can remain in their homes and communities.


Each adult on this waiver is assigned a Supports Intensity Scale level (SIS) that determines the level of support and funding the individual will receive. Working with your Case Management Agency (CMA) the adult will be assessed in the following areas to determine which support level they qualify for:

  • Individual Basic Support needs
  • Medical Support needs
  • Behavioral Support needs


Based on the assessment conducted, your adult son/daughter will be assigned a support level which grants them a specific amount of funding for services to meet their on-going needs.

  • Level 1 = $22,275.59
  • Level 2 = $29,750.58
  • Level 3 = $33,454.81
  • Level 4 = $38,433.41
  • Level 5 = $46,307.80
  • Level 6 = $60,695.38
