Sawa Support, Inc. specializes in providing full wrap-around supported living services to dually diagnosed (Intellectually disabled/ psychiatric) adults, who have histories of challenging behavioral issues. We also specialize in serving individuals with complex health conditions.
Sawa Support's management team has extensive experience working with individuals with challenging medical, psychiatric, and behavioral issues in their own homes. Throughout our agency's existence, our main goal has been to provide an opportunity for ALL individuals to live in environments where they can follow their dreams and aspirations, while receiving the support they need to live successful, safe, and productive lives. We had never shied away from a challenge, and in fact Sawa Support had given a second chance to many individuals who would have otherwise remained stuck in hospitals or psychiatric facilities.
Diversity and inclusion are essential values that Sawa Support, Inc. strongly upholds. We are committed to providing quality services to all consumers, regardless of their race, gender, religion, cultural background, sexual orientation or expression, or socioeconomic status. Our staff are encouraged to educate themselves on the various cultures of our consumers, and specifically, their beliefs, practices, and values.
If you, or someone you know, is needing assistance to help yourself or a family member with complex medical conditions or challenging behavioral issues, we would welcome the opportunity to talk with you about our services, and about how Sawa Support, Inc. can help.

At Sawa Support, we believe that every individual has the potential to live a fulfilling and purposeful life. Our approach is person-centered, and focuses on helping our clients cultivate self-awareness, identify their values and goals, and create actionable steps towards achieving them. We are committed to providing a safe, friendly, and non-judgmental environment for our clients to explore their true potential and work towards their desired outcomes.
We strongly believe that ongoing, high-quality staff training is crucial to the development of our employees' skills set and knowledge, and to the long-term success of our clients’ programs. These trainings include courses designed to increase the direct support staff basic knowledge of, and give them the necessary skills to perform, behavior analysis and modification techniques applied to persons with intellectual disabilities. Our staff are taught to recognize the differences between operant behavior, upon which positive behaviorally supportive procedures “work”, and aspects of the consumer's disability, or psychiatric disorders, that must be accommodated through provision of care as well as through medical and psychotropic medication as prescribed by their health professionals.
In regards to individuals with complex health issues, Sawa Support utilizes the services of a Registered Nurse.
The Nursing Consultant, in coordination with Sawa's management, constructs a comprehensive health plan to address the client’s medical needs. In addition, the Nursing Consultant trains the Support Staff on all complex consumer health care programs rendered by them, including medication delivery, bowel programs, nutrition, etc.

At Sawa Support, Inc., we pride ourselves for having an excellent “track record”. Over the past 15 years, members of our management team have worked closely with Regional Center of the East Bay, San Andreas Regional Center, and Valley Mountain Regional Center to support some of their more challenging consumers in different community settings. The majority of the clients whom we served were/ are dually diagnosed with developmental disabilities/mental health issues.
Over the course of our work in Supported Living, most of us at Sawa have experienced more stress and frustration than we could possibly list. We have sweat. We have cried, and at times, we have even bled as we have striven to provide the best services to some of the most challenging individuals within the system. This been said, we have also shared immense and innumerable joys, as we watched our clients flourish beyond all expectations. We have seen clients grow to be good, thriving members of the general community, celebrating marriages, behavioral triumphs, high school graduations, many clients' first experiences (attending ball games, visiting parents’ homes out of state, concerts, Las Vegas, Disney Land, etc.) and much much more. Please enjoy the pictures shared by our folks, past and present, in the "Gallery" tab. These pictures are definitely worth thousands of words.
If you have any questions, or if you would like additional information about our agency and services, please feel free to contact us via the "Contact Us" information. We very much look forward to speaking with you about the needs of those you care about, and how Sawa Support, Inc. may be a solution for providing Supported Living services to your loved one.
We love our clients, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
