Supporting Adults with Disabilities: Living Independently After 18

Turning 18 is a major milestone. For individuals with disabilities, it marks a transition into a new phase of life filled with opportunities—and challenges. Zion Care Services LLC is dedicated to supporting this transition through our specialized Supported Living Services (SLS) for adults.
What Changes After 18?
Legally and practically, turning 18 means more autonomy. Individuals may:
- Move out of the family home
- Take on legal responsibility for decisions
- Begin adult programming
However, this also means needing more structured support for:
- Personal care
- Household management
- Health and medical care
- Social integration
