At Homies, we are thrilled to partner with the Westside Regional Center (WRC) to transform supported living services for adults with disabilities across West Los Angeles, Culver City, Santa Monica, and surrounding communities. Our collaboration with WRC allows us to offer innovative, person-centered care that empowers individuals to live independently and thrive in their local environments.
Enhancing WRC Services with Homies
Personalized Living Arrangements: Homies Westside Regional Center services complement WRC’s existing programs by offering customized living solutions. We take the time to match individuals with compatible supportive roommates, fostering harmonious household dynamics that promote personal growth and independence. Our approach ensures that every individual has the opportunity to live in an environment that feels like home.
Community Integration: Working closely with WRC, we ensure that our clients are well-connected to local resources, activities, and support groups throughout West Los Angeles. Whether you’re in Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, or Venice, we help individuals build meaningful connections in their communities. Our goal is to make sure that each person feels included and supported in their daily lives, from social events to employment opportunities.

Skill Development: At Homies, we believe in empowering individuals to develop the skills they need for independent living. Our supportive living model aligns perfectly with WRC’s mission to promote client growth and autonomy. We encourage our clients to take an active role in their own lives, helping them to become more self-reliant in areas such as budgeting, cooking, and managing daily routines. For more information on how WRC supports skill development, check out their Client Services page.
Flexible Housing Options: Homies offers a wide range of living options to meet different needs and preferences. This flexibility expands the choices available to WRC clients, allowing for more personalized and suitable living arrangements. Whether you’re looking for a shared apartment, a private room, or a co-living space, Homies can help you find the perfect solution. The California Department of Developmental Services provides additional resources on supported living options.
Person-Centered Approach: We celebrate each individual’s unique strengths and challenges, complementing WRC’s commitment to person-centered planning. Our services are designed to support individuals in a way that respects their autonomy and preferences, ensuring that each person’s voice is heard and valued. To explore more about the person-centered planning approach, visit the National Center on Advancing Person-Centered Practices and Systems.

Success Story: David’s Path to Independence
David, a 30-year-old man with cerebral palsy, had always dreamed of living independently but needed the right support to make that dream a reality. Through Homies’ partnership with WRC, David was matched with a supportive roommate in a welcoming Santa Monica apartment. With personalized care and the right living environment, David has flourished—he’s now employed part-time, actively engaged in community activities, and enjoying a level of independence that once seemed out of reach.
Seamless Coordination with WRC
Our team at Homies works closely with WRC service coordinators to ensure a seamless transition to supported living. We actively participate in Individual Program Plan (IPP) meetings, provide regular progress updates, and adjust our services as needed to meet evolving client needs. This collaboration ensures that every individual receives the highest level of care and support. Learn more about the IPP process by visiting the California Department of Developmental Services IPP page.
