team!
We are Cypress Independent Living Services, Inc., one of the

Disabled Adults and Seniors in the Bay area.
Our services are goal oriented and are driven by the philosophy
that the more independent individuals are in their daily lives, the
more successful they will be.
JOB DESCRIPTION:
A Life Skills Coach (LSC) works with and supports individuals with
intellectual/ developmental disabilities in the places they live
and work. LSC's perform their jobs out in the community.
A PARTNER - assisting individuals to lead independent lives,
participate in and contribute to the community.
A TEACHER - finding creative and fun ways to help individuals learn
meaningful skills and provide them with information to make the
best choices for themselves. ---
An AMBASSADOR - to the individual's community, encouraging others
to interact with individuals with intellectual/developmental
disabilities as neighbors, friends, and co-workers.
An ADVOCATE - supporting individuals to exercise their rights and
responsibilities.
A SUPPORTER - seeking to understand the likes, dislikes, hopes, and
dreams of individuals they support and working with them as they
make progress toward their life goals.
All of the roles that you play have a common focus on supporting
individuals to live the kind of lives they choose. The LSC is a
Partner, Teacher, Ambassador, Advocate, and Supporter.
The job of the LSC carries a unique responsibility - Unlike a
parent, legal guardian, or conservator, the LSC does not have the
authority to make important life decisions for individuals they
work for and with. Instead, the individuals themselves, with the
help of LSC, parents, legal guardians, conservators and service
coordinators as appropriate, make decisions about their own
lives.
