Program areas at Southern Oregon Aspire

24-hour residential support: we provide person-centered supports and care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in family-like homes, with three to five people. Support needs range from complex physical and medical conditions while others require sophisticated communication techniques and behavioral support. Services are provided by a compassionate team consisting of direct support professionals, residential managers, and behavior professionals who support individual's goals and respect what makes each person unique.
The community living services program is unique as we offer a variety of settings where services can be provided. We can provide services to individuals who live in their own home or live with their family; if they are married and/or have children, we can share provided services with another agency. Southern Oregon Aspire owns a nine-unit apartment complex close to the heart of downtown grants pass. This complex allows individuals to enjoy the freedom of independent living with its close proximity to our community where everything is within walking distance. We stand out in what we do within this particular program because of the large variety of supports we provide. Our supports are person-centered and catered to each person's individual needs. We work with individuals to reach personal goals like owning their own homes, purchasing a personal vehicle, reaching personal health or financial goals and going on vacations. Other areas of importance we provide supports are managing medications, budgeting and finances, meal planning, nutritional and health needs, and home care needs such as housekeeping and yard maintenance. We help individuals navigate other available resources like housing and energy assistance, food stamps and medical benefits.
At Southern Oregon Aspire, we believe all individuals should be able to work in our community, develop valuable career skills, and gain confidence in their abilities. We specialize in tailoring part-time positions ranging from 2-25 hours per week. We partner with a wide range of businesses and organizations across josephine county to help create a more equitable and inclusive workforce in the rogue valley.
