Planning for Independent Living

Living on your own for the first time can be an exciting time in your life but it can also be stressful. Your new freedom comes with financial responsibilities such as paying your monthly rent, utilities, and any other expenses. That’s why it’s important to start planning ahead with the help of your family, your circle of support, and your Service Coordinator to make this transition as easy as possible.
This video will help guide you in developing a plan for living on your own (or with a roommate) that includes creating goals, finding a place to live, how to pay for rent and living expenses, current living options available at Westside Regional Center, and more.
