Start with what matters
A useful skill is one that connects with the person’s own life. Individual goals and preferences help identify which parts of a daily routine feel meaningful and where support could help the person participate.

Daily living support questions for Billings families
For Billings adults and families considering a residential move, useful questions start with the routines and skills the person wants to develop. Daily living skills have a personal purpose: participating more fully in routines, making choices, and taking an active role at home. Infinity’s Great Falls residential program includes support for these skills within an approach that respects individual goals and preferences. The focus is meaningful participation in everyday life, alongside opportunities for connection within the community.
Keep the person involved
Support for daily living should leave room for the person’s choices and contributions. Participation can take different forms, and the value of a task includes the role the individual wants to have in it.
Look beyond the task
Everyday skills are connected with confidence, personal routines, and community life. Our residential approach brings daily living support together with individual goals and inclusion, rather than treating completed tasks as the whole purpose of support.
02 / THE INFINITY APPROACH
Progress should have personal meaning
A daily routine can offer a practical place to build participation. For one person, the priority may be taking a more active role in a familiar task. For another, it may be making more choices about how the day unfolds. These are examples of the kinds of goals families can discuss when exploring our Great Falls program. Infinity’s emphasis on daily living skills keeps that discussion connected to individual preferences and meaningful goals. Support is shaped around the individual.

04 / QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR SERVICES
Service questions from Billings families
What is the purpose of daily living skills support?
The purpose is to support participation in everyday life in ways that connect with the individual’s goals and routines. Specific needs and priorities should be discussed with Infinity when considering the Great Falls program.
Are daily living goals the same for everyone?
No. A meaningful goal should reflect the individual’s own interests, routines and support needs. Our Great Falls program emphasizes individual choice alongside opportunities to build practical skills.
Where is the residential home?
Infinity’s Montana residential home is in Great Falls. This page introduces the program to adults, families, guardians and referral partners in Billings. It does not describe a separate Billings facility.
What should we confirm before placement?
Eligibility, authorization, individual support needs, fit and current availability must be confirmed. Call 406-760-2002 to begin a general conversation and ask how to share any personal records securely.
05 / RESOURCES FOR BILLINGS
A Billings resource for independent living skills
LIFTT · Independent living skills
LIFTT has a Billings office and serves Yellowstone County as part of its southeastern Montana service area. Its independent living skills program describes classes and individualized instruction on subjects including managing money, health and nutrition, using public transportation, and advocating for personal needs. These services give Billings adults a separate local resource for exploring skills that matter to everyday independence. LIFTT lists its Billings office at 1241 Crawford Drive and its phone number as 406-259-5181; confirm arrangements directly before a visit.
Start with one or two goals chosen by the adult, such as understanding a budget or becoming more confident asking for help. Ask LIFTT which current class or individualized option addresses those goals, how participation works and whether there are requirements or costs. Its training is separate from Infinity’s Great Falls residential program. Learning about a local skill-building option does not require assuming that a residential move is the right next step.
