Comprehensive Services provides 24-hour residential care, employment, transportation, and other day services. This is an all-inclusive program that is designed to ensure that all identified needs in your Individualized Plan (IP) are met. An individual cannot receive Comprehensive Services if they are living at home. In this program, a service provider will supply living arrangements.

These arrangements include:

• Host home settings with 1-2 persons
• Individualized settings of 1-3 persons
• And group settings of 4-8 persons.

Individuals may be responsible for paying a portion of the cost, depending on monthly income.

Microboard Option

A Microboard is an agency created by family members or guardians and incorporated to do business in the State of Colorado. This agency exists to provide Comprehensive Services to one person with a developmental disability. This person cannot be living with the family. A Microboard can directly control program implementation (such as who is hired or fired); govern what types of incentives are provided to retain good employees and what type of training is required and oversee the quality of services.

An individual applying for services may be placed on a waiting list to receive this service.  Contact your CCB for more information. To find the CCB in your area, use our Zip Code Locator below.
