Our Services

Inspired Options Inc. provides individualized services for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Maryland. Our supports are designed to help each person live safely, participate meaningfully in the community, build independence, maintain health and wellness, and pursue goals that are personally meaningful.

We recognize that every person has unique strengths, preferences, needs, and aspirations. Our services are delivered through a person-centered approach that respects individual choice, promotes dignity, and encourages each person to live life to the fullest in communities of their choice.

We work closely with program participants, families, advocates, Coordinators of Community Services, healthcare providers, employers, community partners, and other members of the support team to ensure services are coordinated, responsive, and aligned with each person’s plan.

All services are aligned with each program participant’s Person-Centered Plan (PCP) and delivered in collaboration with Coordinators of Community Services (CCS), families, healthcare providers, and other stakeholders.
