Venture Forthe BH HCBS are for adults 21 years and older.

independent living, health, community, social, wellness and personal care
skills. This service can be provided in the home or community. A goal may
include the individual becoming an active and productive member their family or
community and/or culture. An example of this is: if the person has struggled
with keeping friends since their recovery process began, the PSR staff member
could help teach social skills and help with pursuing recreational activities.
