Non-24-Hour Supported Community Living

WESCO Industries’ Non-24-Hour Supported Community Living Program is designed to support and encourage individuals to live as independently as possible in their own homes. Staff is available to provide individualized services at times that are convenient to the person served. The goal of the program is to maintain independent living and increase involvement in the community. The program provides training to help people develop or regain skills of daily living.

These skills include money management/budgeting, daily living skills, hygiene and self-care, grocery shopping, exercise, mental health, transportation, scheduling and attending appointments, medication management as well as social integration.

Our members enjoy Friday lunches with their peers, where they get to choose a different restaurant within Denison and surrounding communities every week. WESCO staff is also available to assist members on yearly vacations of the member’s choosing.

Families, caregivers, guardians, caseworkers, and other agencies should contact Deidra Brown at 712-263-6141 or by email if they are interested in having WESCO provide services or would like to request a tour or additional information. For more information on funding options, please contact the Finance Director, Donna Schurke, at 712-263-6141 or by email.
