Supports Intensity Scale (SIS)

The Supports Intensity Scale (SIS) is a tool used to assess the level of support a person with disabilities needs to live a meaningful life. It evaluates various areas such as recreation, social activities, health, safety, and community involvement. By analyzing how much support or assistance a person requires in each area, the SIS helps create personalized plans to ensure they receive appropriate services. It aims to identify strengths and needs, promoting independence and participation in the community while respecting individual preferences.
