Housing & Supportive Services
A resource guide for individuals, families, and service providers across South Carolina. While SOS Care's primary focus includes individuals with ASD and other Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, this guide includes a wide range of housing and support options for varying levels of need and independence.
We recognize that individuals seeking housing and supportive services have varying levels of ability, independence, and self-sufficiency. Needs may change over time, and the appropriate level of support can differ greatly from person to person. For this reason, this guide is designed to present a wide range of options, including traditional service models as well as non-traditional and community-based resources that may be appropriate depending on an individual's goals, strengths, and support needs.
The resources included may be useful for individuals living independently, those who require limited or intermittent support, and those who may benefit from more structured assistance. Not all resources will be suitable for every individual, and availability, eligibility, and services offered may vary by location and provider.
SOS Care is committed to promoting choice, flexibility, and informed decision-making. This guide is intended to serve as a starting point for exploration, conversation, and connection, empowering individuals and families to identify housing and support options that best align with their unique needs and level of independence.
