Residential Support Services
Our Specialized Contract programs provide tailored housing accommodations. We work closely with the State of Oregon to create housing opportunities as needs arise.
Specialized Contacts
Currently we operate one apartment complex and several single-family homes in Salem. We are proud to offer programs with a focus on behavioral-health supports.
I/DD Programs
In December of 2019, we opened our first program specifically for youth with medical support needs. We look forward to expanding this program to provide support to more children.

AIM: Autonomy in Motion
We also offer online “virtual” services!
These services are designed to provide skill training/practice and to heighten connection with providers or therapeutic cohorts that support their community involvements.
Our Philosophy
IS Living’s vision is to develop and provide services that empower others to live happy, fulfilling lives.
The Autonomy in Motion (AIM) program has been developed to support persons experiencing disability and isolation to attain and maintain self-selected, valued community roles which reflect their interest, talents, and preferences while giving them full decision-making ability.
When we ensure all people are able to participate fully in our community, our entire community is richer.
What We Do
The AIM program provides assessment, planning, skills training, education, resources, and experiences to support people experiencing disability. It is our AIM that all people have self-selected, valued community roles that reflect their interests, preferences, and talents.
How We Do This
Upon entry into the AIM program, individuals will complete a social-leisure assessment that will identify:
Personal preferences
Interests
Talents
Experiences
Needs
Preferred learning styles
Sought after community roles
This assessment will be the basis for the development of a strategic action plan for community integration.
Within 20 service days, this plan shall be completed and provided to the Service Coordinator/Case Manager for inclusion and authorization through the ISP process. The action plan shall include, at a minimum, three measurable objectives that measure the individual’s progress toward achieving their self-selected service goals.
The Autonomy in Motion, “AIM” program is a Community Living Support (CLS) service to support individuals in achieving a more full and inclusive life, ample with connections within the community.
Communication
The AIM Program Coordinator (or whom they delegate) participates in ISP team meetings to review, report, and enhance the proficiency of services.
