Self-determined living with a disability

Do you live with a disability? If so, you are entitled to assistance services that support you in managing your everyday life independently and in a self-determined manner: whether in your home, household and everyday life, social relationships, leisure activities or personal life planning.

People with disabilities are entitled to financial assistance and support services to help them lead a self-determined life. The individual support you want and need will be determined together with you during the needs assessment. This is based on your goals and wishes - for example, how and with whom you would like to live. The responsible LVR case management team will answer questions about benefits, applications and needs assessment.

You can find more information on the various support services for living and everyday life on the LVR website.

If you want more structure and stability in your day-to-day tasks, you can get digital support from the free InA.Coach app.

The app is designed to be inclusive and is aimed in particular at people with learning difficulties and cognitive impairments in the areas of work, home, school, household, etc.

With the app, you can easily create simple instructions for work processes. You can use pictures and text to make them colorful and motivating. Checklists, timers and a review function help you do this.

Job coaches also benefit from the app. Together with their clients, they determine what is important for their tasks.
