Department Overview

Community Living Connections, Inc. (CLC) is a local, non-profit agency founded in 2004.

The supports CLC provides are flexible, person-centered and committed. Our organization provides support that enables people to live in their own homes and participate in community life.

We believe that individuals, regardless of ability, deserve equal opportunities to create their "best life"; they just need additional support in order to do so.

This position is in-person working directly with other people. During COVID-19, all employees must comply with appropriate precautions to ensure the safety and wellness of people we support and coworkers. We are reducing the possibility of COVID-19 spreading within CLC, by reducing the number of people you will come into contact with, thereby reducing your contact circle. Employees must maintain 6 ft social distancing when possible.

Employees must wear facial masks while working in the homes of people we support, and in the presence of anyone (regardless of indoors or outside). Facial masks and hand sanitizer are provided to employees. PPE is provided to employees if someone you support contacts COVID-19 and continues to need CLC supports. If employees exhibit symptoms of COVID-19, they must call-in to work by notifying their supervisor, and should contact their health-care provider.

If you have come in contact with anyone at CLC who tested positive for COVID-19, you will be contacted and asked to quarantine and watch for symptoms.
