Empowering Independence, One Step at a Time

At SAIL Home, we believe that empowering individuals with disabilities to become more adaptive, self-determined, and independent is key to closing the gap between housing needs and availability.

Through resources, personalized support, and family-focused training, we guide families step by step in exploring and creating supported living solutions tailored to their loved ones’ needs. From housing and assistive technology to job training and community integration, our approach is holistic—because independence is about more than just where you live. It’s about living with purpose, dignity, and support in a place you call home.

Together, we can help individuals with I/DD and autism reach their fullest potential and thrive in the communities they love.

Creating Homes, Building Futures

A home is more than just a place to live—it’s a haven of safety, comfort, and belonging. It’s where we nurture our dreams, express our individuality, and find peace in being ourselves. At SAIL Home, we believe every individual deserves this sense of home. Our mission is to create housing models that not only provide stability but also empower residents to live their fullest, most meaningful lives.

Enhancing Independence Through Assistive Technology

Assistive technology (AT) includes tools, devices, and systems designed to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and/or autism in daily living. These technologies empower individuals by enhancing functional skills and promoting greater independence, autonomy, and quality of life.

AT can address a wide range of needs—from communication and social interaction to health, hygiene, and safety. Examples include visual schedules, medication dispensers, remote monitoring systems, and smart home devices. By integrating these tools, individuals may require fewer staff check-ins, enjoy more privacy, and gain increased confidence in managing their daily routines.

At SAIL Home Scituate, assistive technology will be thoughtfully incorporated into each residence based on the specific needs of the individuals who live there. This may include items such as Apple AirTags, smart ovens, anti-scald shower devices, and intercom systems—all selected to support a safe, independent, and dignified lifestyle.
