Supervised Independent Living
Preparing young adults for successful independence
The Supervised Independent Living (SIL) program provides 11 efficiency apartments for young women 18 and older who are not quite prepared to live on their own and choose to remain in the custody of Child Protective Services through an extended foster care agreement.
