Department of Disabilities and Special Needs (DDSN) - Residential Services - South Carolina

The Department of Disabilities and Special Needs provides a number of residential services to eligible individuals.

Supervised living programs serve adults capable of independence. Adults may live in apartments, duplexes or other housing. Supervision and support services are provided to meet individual needs.

Community training homes offer individuals the opportunity to live in a home-like environment under the supervision of a qualified and trained caregiver. Personalized care, supervision and individualized training are provided for no more than three individuals living in a home. Caregivers are either trained private citizens who provide care in their own homes (CTH I), or employees who provide care in a home that is owned or rented by the provider organization (CTH II).

Community residences resemble single-family homes in local neighborhoods. They provide 24-hour care, supervision, counseling, recreation and other activities.

Regional residential centers provide 24-hour care and treatment to individuals. Generally, regional center care is recommended only when all other appropriate community services are not available. Regional centers are located in Columbia, Florence, Clinton, Summerville (near Charleston), and Hartsville.
