Join us for a community conversation on shared living in Rhode Island with presenters Kim Einloth, Joanne Malise and Jennifer Buzzerio.

Living Innovations invites you to a special two-hour event exploring the evolution of residential services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in Rhode Island. 

First we’ll explore the history of where we've been and where we're headed, highlighting the key shift toward more inclusive, person-centered models with special attention to Shared Living Arrangements. 

Next we will feature a dynamic, moderated panel of a person with IDD, their family and a home provider. Hear firsthand stories, insights and experiences that bring the Shared Living model to life and showcase its impact on real people and communities.

Come learn, connect and be inspired by the voices shaping the future of residential services in Rhode Island.
