The mission of Keystone's residential services is to assist persons with psychiatric disabilities to select, obtain, and maintain the community living environments of their choice with success and satisfaction, and with as much independence as is personally possible.
Keystone's Intensive Supported Apartment Program (ISAP) emphasizes development of independent living skills and natural community supports while an individual resides in an apartment or room in the community. Staff visits apartments at a frequency that is commensurate with an individual's needs to perform a variety of residential support and case management services.
Residential support services include assisting with daily living skills, shopping, cooking, cleaning, money management, negotiating with landlords, and the many other skill areas necessary to maintain community tenure within an independent setting. Case management services include acting as a liaison with clinicians and medical providers, transportation, medication and symptom monitoring, and arranging entitlements. An individual goal/service plan is the central service component which ensures that skill training is individually tailored.
The Intensive Supported Apartment Program provides services with on-site
staff daily or via beeper coverage, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The Intensive Supported Apartment Program is funded by the State
of Connecticut Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services
and by private contributions. No fee is charged for participation, rents
are generally paid through individual entitlements.
