Our History<\/h1>\n

In the fall of 2002, Donald and Leanne Negley began to develop and shape what would become the foundation of what we know today as Rural Living Environments. They decided to focus on the needs of people with Intellectual<\/strong> and Developmental Disabilities<\/strong> by providing innovative residential services.<\/p>\n

Today, Rural Living Environments, Inc., serves people in many different areas of support: Supported Living Services in three AFC<\/a> sites and to individuals in their own homes, In-home Family Support, Out of Home Respite, Employment Supports, and Behavior Support Intervention Services.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”orange”][vc_column_text]\n<\/p>

Our Staff<\/h1>\n

We recognize our dedicated Direct Support Professionals who provide the care to the individuals we support.  Without their commitment to providing person-centered supports, there would be no company.  They are the reason we continue to have the high degree of respect within our industry and make profound differences in individual’s lives.<\/p>\n
