Frequently asked questions

What's an alternative family living (AFL) setting?

AFL places an individual in a family home with a contracted provider who delivers daily support, similar to Tennessee's Family Model. It's an alternative to group homes.

How are homes chosen?

Placements are based on the person's needs, preferences, compatibility with housemates, and availability. We work to make it a real fit.

Can a person move between residential options?

Yes, when it makes sense for the person and the team agrees. The home is not meant to be a one-way placement.

Not sure which service fits?
