Cridge Brain Injury Services – Community Supports

Developmental Disabilities (DD) and Personalized Supports Initiative (PSI) Services

We work with Community Living BC to provide individualized and personalized services to adults with developmental disabilities or who have both significant limitations in adaptive functioning and a diagnosis of either Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

The aim of these support services are to help people maintain and/or increase their independence.

Services may include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Life skills development
• Meal planning and preparation
• Interpersonal skills training
• Personal finances/budgeting
• Transportation support
• Leisure planning
• Medical appointment support
• Vocational assistance
• Community support
• Scheduling/planning/organization support
• Building a sustainable network of support

The Personal Supports Initiative (PSI) team understands the needs of those affected by Fetal Alcohol Syndrome or Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Our team provides support that is uniquely tailored to meet the needs of each individual and will work with you to achieve your personal goals.

To start the CLBC application process please call CLBC Toll Free at 1 877-660-2522, where you will be connected to a facilitator who can tell you about required documents and diagnosis information. If approved for PSI or DD services, individuals may choose The Cridge Centre to be their service provider.
