Host Home / Companion Care
Live in a real family home with a trained host or companion who supports you every day. It is a close, personal setting where you are part of the household, with Abricare training, checking in, and backing up the host.
Support Built Around the Life You Want
Through the Texas HCS and TxHmL programs, we support where you live, how you spend your days, and the health and professional care that keeps you well. Every service follows your person-directed plan, built with you, your family, and your service coordinator.
Where You Live
A Home That Fits Your Life
HCS lets you choose where you live. Wherever that is, we provide the daily support written into your plan, so home feels like yours.
Group Home (Residential Support)
Share a small home in the community with no more than three housemates. Trained staff help with daily routines, meals, medications, and getting out and about, while you make the choices that shape your day.
Supported Home Living
Support in your own home or your family's home, including transportation. Staff help with personal care, cooking, cleaning, shopping, and appointments, and teach the skills that build independence.
CFC Personal Assistance & Habilitation
Through Community First Choice, people who live in their own or family home can get hands-on help with daily activities and coaching to learn new skills, such as dressing, meal prep, money, and using the bus.
Your Days, Your Community
More of the Life You Choose
Days filled with things that matter to you: learning, friends, work, and time out in the community. And a real break for the families who love you.
Individualized Skills & Socialization
Daytime activities at community sites chosen around your interests, from classes and volunteering to outings and hobbies. You build skills, confidence, and friendships in the places other people go every day.
Employment Assistance & Supported Employment
Help figuring out what kind of work fits you, finding and applying for a job, and on-the-job support to learn the role, keep it, and grow in it. Real work, real pay, alongside coworkers.
Respite
Short-term support, in your home or out of it, that gives family caregivers time to rest, run errands, or simply recharge, knowing you are safe and well supported.
Transition Assistance
Help setting up a household for someone moving out of an institution and into the community, so the move to a new home goes smoothly from day one.
Health & Professional Support
The Right Expertise, Coordinated Around You
Professional services that keep you healthy and help you reach your goals, coordinated with your doctors, your family, and your service coordinator.
Nursing
Licensed nurses assess health needs, oversee medications, train staff on your specific care, and keep your health plan on track.
Behavioral Support
Respectful, positive strategies built with a behavior specialist to help you handle hard moments, communicate what you need, and build on what already works.
Specialized Therapies
Occupational, physical, and speech therapy, plus audiology and dietary services, to help you move, communicate, eat well, and do more for yourself.
Dental
Dental care authorized in your plan, so regular checkups and treatment do not fall through the cracks.
Social Work
Help with benefits, community resources, family concerns, and the practical side of life, so small problems do not become big ones.
Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy
Therapy for people with a brain injury that helps rebuild memory, attention, problem solving, and everyday thinking skills.
Adaptive Aids & Minor Home Modifications
Equipment and small changes to the home, such as ramps, grab bars, or communication devices, that make daily life safer and easier.
Care Coordination
We work closely with your primary care doctor, dentist, therapists, behavior analysts, and LIDDA service coordinator, so everyone supporting you is on the same page.
Texas Home Living (TxHmL)
Support Where You Already Live
TxHmL is for people who live in their own home or their family's home. It adds essential services to the support you already have, so life can keep happening right where it is.
Community Support
Help in the community and at home with daily activities and skills, including transportation to the places you need and want to go.
CFC Personal Assistance & Habilitation
