Join Our Inclusive Community
Where Compassion Meets Care

Individualized Support Programs

Our HCBS Individualized Supports are designed to help individuals live more independently by providing one-on-one assistance in their home or community. These services are flexible and personalized to meet each person's unique goals, abilities and daily needs.

Residential Services

Our HCBS Residential Services provide personalized supports for individuals who want to live as independently as possible in a safe, comfortable and community-based home environment. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live with dignity, choice and connection. Through our Residential Services, individuals receive the care and support they need to thrive-while being encouraged to make their own decisions and pursue their personal goals.

Day Services

Our HCBS Day Program provides meaningful daytime activities, skill development, and community engagement opportunities for individuals seeking structure, social connection and personal growth. We focus on helping each person build independence, confidence and a sense of purpose through supportive and engaging experiences. Whether through learning new skills, volunteering or participating in recreational activities; our program encourages every individual to be an active and valued member of their community.

 Caring for my Ward is challenging, however he has grown so much since joining the Great Plains community. I credit the caring and supportive staff interaction.They took the time and put in the effort to get to know him and establish a relationship with him. That relationship provides a positive foundation at times when things get hard for him. They accept him, value and respect him. What I value most is their ability to understand the challenges associated with his disability and to help him process when he has become triggered or frustrated. They have good staffing coverage that allows them to be in tune with what is going on in his life and to intervene early to help him regulate if needed. They offer many activities and opportunities for him. He has started participating in Special Olympics and is now working 2 days a week. He is happy with his life there. He is more positive and content, something I had only wished for him until now.
