Independent Living with Built-in Support
The Neighborhood Network offers semi-independent adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities a safe option to live independently with support when they need it.
The Neighborhood Network is designed to allow residents the opportunity to choose their preferred lifestyle in a safe and supportive community.
Residents grow deep, meaningful connections with others and support each other as they grow in their independence.

Large enough to be inclusive

A New Paradigm of Care
This unique service model combines the foundation of a well-selected neighborhood and professional next-door neighbors with the remote support infrastructure of iLink Technologies, to create a home environment that is inclusive, affordable, and self-directed.

Well-selected neighborhood
We carefully select our neighborhoods since they are the foundation for our service model. Apartment complexes we partner with are filled with amenities, located in good neighborhoods, safe and accessible, and close to public transportation.
We currently have Neighborhood Networks located in Lawrence, KS, Overland Park, KS, and Wichita, KS.

Program Enhancements
While the Neighborhood Network offers an excellent and innovative support system, we recognize that life is more than just a series of needs. It’s just as important to offer rich learning environments–where each person can contribute talents and energy to give back, build independence, and gain valuable skills.
Our day services programming is enhanced with several learning opportunities that maximize personal growth and skill building.
RISE
RISE is a beautiful and dynamic Day Service program for semi-independent individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities who are interested in growing in their independence and exploring the community around them.
A unique offering of GoodLife, RISE participants in Douglas and Johnson Counties get to learn and improve their life skills, build friendships, mentor their peers, and give back to and have fun in their communities.
TEAM Work Program
TEAM stands for Two Employees Accomplish More Work. The TEAM Work program provides residents of the Neighborhood Network with a job of up to 15 hours per week at minimum wage. Each position is paired with a skilled worker who can provide training, mentorship, and skills on-the-job. Not only does this help ensure that the job is done to the standard each employer expects, but also provides a long-term solution for employment for those who historically need ongoing support at the workplace. Jobs are offered throughout GoodLife, including at Midnight Farm.
