Who We Serve

Myloda House provides Independent Living Support for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities who are working toward greater independence in home and community life. Support is shaped around each person’s goals, routines, preferences, strengths, and support needs.

Myloda House works alongside individuals, families, guardians, DDS service coordinators, and support networks to help each person pursue meaningful progress at a pace that respects their needs and choices.

Adults Supported Through DDS

Independent Living Support is generally intended for DDS-eligible adults age 22 and older with intellectual and developmental disabilities whose support needs can be addressed through individualized, home- and community-based services.

Access to services is coordinated through DDS referral and authorization processes. Myloda House does not determine DDS eligibility.

Individuals and families seeking information about DDS eligibility or application materials may visit the Massachusetts Department of Developmental Services website or contact their local DDS Area Office.

Common Support Needs

Adults receiving Independent Living Support may have goals or support needs in areas such as:

  • Building daily living skills

  • Strengthening safe home routines

  • Making informed choices

  • Managing appointments and routines

  • Participating in community activities

  • Communicating preferences and needs

  • Building confidence and independence

  • Staying connected with support networks

Where Support Happens

Support may take place at home, in the community, or in other everyday settings where the person is working toward greater independence. This may include support related to appointments, community activities, errands, routines, and other daily-life responsibilities.
