Living Independently Forever, Inc. (“LIFE”) was established in 1993 on beautiful Cape Cod, Massachusetts to help adults with disabilities attain their maximum level of independence, self-fulfillment and happiness. Our commitment is life-long and encompasses the personal, social and employment needs of the individual.

LIFE has developed and maintained two picturesque campuses in the towns of Mashpee and Hyannis. Residents live in wonderful one and two bedroom condominiums. Residents either purchase or rent a condominium from LIFE. Our communities include a Community Center with recreational facilities, large kitchens, common areas and state of the art fitness centers. They also include outdoor athletic facilities. Our communities are strategically placed nearby local shopping, cultural and social centers which our residents frequent.

New residents and families quickly learn that Cape Cod offers something for everyone throughout the year. LIFE works with residents to plan local and national trips and outings to museums, beaches, sports activities, concerts and other endeavors. LIFE also contracts with local professionals to offer classes that interest our residents, from Zumba dancing to theatrical classes to kung fu to gardening.

LIFE offers individualized skills training in housekeeping, laundry, meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking, money management and other areas that encourage independent living. Staff also assists members with medical and dental visits and health related issues. Personal counseling and problem resolution are also built in to the LIFE supports as well as a “24-Hour Emergency On-Call” system.

LIFE - Living Independently Forever

One of our most important goals is to ensure that residents are busy and are involved – whether through paid employment or volunteer opportunities. LIFE has an entire division of professional staff that focuses on employment and volunteer opportunities for our residents.

LIFE also provides services to members who choose to live in various condominium communities outside of the LIFE Community. This direction allows for greater independence while still offering access to all of the staff supports, social and recreational activities and emergency on-call service that are components of LIFE.

LIFE has established a network of local psychologists and social workers for individual clinical work and an assortment of consultants for nutrition, lifestyle coaching and information technology. These professionals compliment our dedicated, experienced staff members. Our goal is to exceed the needs of your family member!
