One service that supports the whole family.
Coordinated Family Support (CFS) is a new Regional Center service for adults with developmental disabilities who live with family. bttr Living helps your family organize appointments, benefits, providers, and routines, so life at home feels clearer and calmer.
CFS in plain words.
Most families are hearing about CFS for the first time. Here is what it actually means for your home.
One coordinator for the whole household
Instead of the family chasing everything on their own, a bttr support professional helps keep it all organized in one place.
Appointments, benefits, and paperwork, in order
We help with reminders, renewal dates, notices, forms, and communication with providers and systems like IHSS, SSI, and Medi Cal.
Calmer routines and clear next steps
The family knows what is happening, what comes next, and who to call. Supporting an adult at home stops feeling like a second full time job.
New program. Simple to check.
Eligibility comes down to three things. Tap each one that applies to your family.
