Providing Assistance in One’s Own Home

Listening Ear’s In-Home Help program allows adults and children with disabilities to live as independently as they choose. Persons served may reside in their homes, or with their families, in Antrim, Clare, Ionia, Isabella, Kalkaska, Mecosta, and Osceola Counties.

In-Home Help staff serve as role models, mentors, and trainers ensuring a safe, clean living environment while promoting independence and participation when at home, at work, or in the community. Staff assist consumers, according to the individual’s person centered plan, with budgeting, shopping, meal preparation, community activities, and more.

Persons served must be referred by Community Mental Health and may reside in Antrim, Clare, Ionia, Isabella, Kalkaska, Mecosta, and Osceola Counties. Services are available 24 hours every day. No fees except as determined by the referring agency.

Listening Ear has established a new Consumers Needs and Dreams endowment fund to help consumers who require extra help achieving their health, employment, social and other goals.
